What Is the BSC Lateral Entry Course in Medical Lab Technology?

A BSc in Medical Laboratory Technology (Lateral Entry) is a 2-year undergraduate BSc course pursued after finishing a program in any other paramedical course like a Diploma in Medical Lab Technology (DMLT).  This Lateral entry program provides you direct entry into the bachelor’s program of Medical Laboratory Technology. As we know Medical surveillance is incomplete without a proper diagnosis of the disease. It is inevitable to treat any disorder without knowing the actual cause of the disease. This can be done only because of the presence of Laboratory analysis which Laboratory experts do.
