A clinical laboratory science related to the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of disease. MEDICAL LABORATORY SCIENTISTS DETECTIVES CORRELATE PERFORM ROUTINE AND INTERDEPENDENT TEST COMPLEX ANALYSES RESULTS RESPONSIBLE IN THE CAN SUPERVISE AND ACCURACY OF RESULTS TEACH THE EVOLUTION OF MEDICAL TECHNOLOGY PROFESSION AND EDUCATION DEFINITION OF MEDICAL TECHNOLOGY  PHILIPPINE ANNE MEDICAL HEINEMANN FAGELSON TECHNOLOGY ACT OF 1969 The branch of Application of An auxillary branch of laboratory medicine concerned principles of natural, medicine which deals with the with the physical, and examination by various chemical, performance of biological sciences microscopic, bacteriologic, and laboratory to the performance other medical procedures, determinations and of laboratory technique which will aid the analyses used in the procedures which physician in the diagnosis, study diagnosis and aid in the diagnosis and treatment of disease and in treatment of and treatment of the promotion of health in diseases and diseases general maintence of health  HISTORY OF MEDICAL TECHNOLOGY HISTORY OF MEDICAL TECHNOLOGY TIMELINE OF EVENTS 460 B.C. 1500 B.C. 1096 - 1438 14TH 1628 - 1694 HIPPOCRATES VIVIAN HERRICK RUTH WILLIAMS CENTURY MALPIGHI ANNE FAGELSON CONTINUATION TIMELINE OF EVENTS 1632 - 1723 1848 15TH ANTON VAN FEHLING CENTURY LEEUWENHOEK ANILINE DYES WERE PRODUCED  Regarded as the founder of scientific medicine. He determined the correlation between anatomical and chemical laboratory findings and the causes of diseases. He adopted the triad of regimen in treating diseases and infection with the use of drugs, surgery, and bloodletting. Traces the beginning of Medical Technology when intestinal parasites such as Taenia and Ascaris were mentioned in early writing. Ebers Papyrus - book containing the description of the three stages of hookworm infection  She believed that Medical Technology began from the Medieval period, supported by the fact that urinalysis was a fad. Early Hindu Doctors - made a scientific observation that the urine of certain individuals attracted ants and that such urine had a sweet taste. She preferred to date Medical Technology from the 14th century Alessandra Giliani - employed to perform tasks under the domain of Medical Technology by a prominent Italian physician at the University of Bologna but died from a laboratory acquired infection.  He invented and improved the compound microscope. He was the first to describe red blood cells, to see protozoan, and to classify bacteria according to shape. It led to the rapid progress of microbiology and pathology. He was described as the greatest of the early microscopists. His work in embryology and anatomy marked him as the founder of pathology.  He performed the first quantitative test for urine. Aniline dyes, for staining microorganisms were produced about the middle 15th century. Hence, bacterial staining and and microscopic study on bacteria were made possible.  ESTABLISHMENT OF LABORATORIES DR. DOUGLAS Established the first chemical DR. WILLIAM laboratory at DR.

Sanford  WHAT HAPPENED NEXT? World War I was an important factor in the growth of clinical laboratory and produced a great demand for technicians. University of Minnesota was the first to offer degree level program in 1923. 1931 - Denver Society of Clinical Pathologist was organized 1936 - American Board of Pathology was established World War II - The use of blood increased and the closed system of blood collection was widely used.  HISTORY OF MEDICAL TECHNOLOGY IN THE PHILIPPINES 26TH MEDICAL INFANTRY OF THE US ARMY Introduced Medical Technology practice in the Philippines at the end of World War II. They established the first clinical laboratory in the Philippines at Quiracada St., Sta. Cruz, Manila where the Manila Public Health Laboratory is presently located. They left the clinical laboratory in June 1943 and endorsed it to the National Department of Health. DR. PIO DE RODA Realized the need for clinical laboratories in the Philippines. He formally organized the Manila Public Health Laboratory from the remnants of the deserted laboratory. He was assisted by Dr. Mariano Icasiano, who was then the Manila City Health Officer, on October 1, 1945. In 1947, he revived the training of high school graduates to work as medical technicians together with Dr. Prudencio Sta. Ana. No definite period and no certificates were given to the trainees. In 1954, a six-month laboratory training with certificate upon completion was given to the trainees. Dr. Sta. Ana prepared the syllabus. The two doctors were helped by Dr. Tirso Briones.  MEDICAL TECHNOLOGY EDUCATION IN THE PHILIPPINES MRS. WILLA HILGERT-HEDRICK The founder of Medical Technology Education in the Philippines. DR.
