One topic, as StudyPath teaches it.

Definition and concept of Medical Laboratory Science

Medical Laboratory Science (MLS) is the science of applying laboratory methods to diagnose, treat, and prevent disease. Mastering its definition, scope, and core responsibilities is essential for the NUC CCMAS, NBTE, and NCCE exams, as exam questions often test the breadth of MLS practice and its role in patient care.
