The College of Dentistry at our university organized a scientific visit for second-year students to Al-Kafeel Super Speciality Hospital, aimed at strengthening their practical and applied learning and linking theoretical concepts to clinical and laboratory applications.
The visit featured a tour of the central specialized laboratory, during which students were introduced to advanced devices and modern technologies used in laboratory investigations, sample analysis mechanisms, and quality assurance protocols for test accuracy. The tour also highlighted the importance of clinical biochemistry in diagnosing diseases and tracking medical conditions.
Additionally, the visit included a scientific lecture addressing the operational principles of modern laboratory instruments as well as the concepts of accuracy, sensitivity, and specificity in diagnostic testing. Students also toured the Diabetic Foot Center to observe specialized patient care methods, diabetes-related complications, and their direct impact on oral and dental health.
