Fostering Lab Capacity of the Hematology Center after Prof. R.H. Yeolyan

The Izmirlian Foundation in cooperation with the Hematology Center is launching the project on “Fostering Lab Capacity of the Hematology Center after Prof. R.H. Yeolyan” aimed at further expanding laboratory diagnostic services in compliance with international standards in clinical microbiology, to improve patient care. Particularly, the Project will foster the diagnostic services related to:

- Fungal complications during the chemotherapy treatment of patients with leukemia, solid tumors and bone marrow transplantation (Pneumocystis, Histoplasmosis, Aspergillosis)

- Gastrointestinal and blood stream infections that require quick detection of pathogenic bacteria

The project aims at facilitating improved access to quality diagnostic services through the enhancement of laboratory technical capacity thus enabling the accurate and timely detection of pathogens as well as diagnosis of myelodysplastic syndromes among patients of the Hematology Center

Project direct beneficiaries are immunocompromised patients with hematological and oncological malignancies and patient with MDS who are receiving care in the Hematology Center after Prof. R.H. Yeolyan.

The Project implementation partner is the Hematology Center after Prof. R.H. Yeolyan.
