In vitro diagnostics
In vitro diagnostic (IVD) tests are, according to the British In Vitro Diagnostics Association, "tests that protect [the] blood supply, monitor the levels of drugs given and provide information to assist in the diagnosis and treatment of disease. These tests are generally run in hospital pathology laboratories and can in specific instances also be carried out in doctors’ surgeries, in high street pharmacies or by patients themselves.
