How Vijaya Diagnostic Ensures Sample Accuracy & Timely Reports

Vijaya Diagnostic Centre,Hyderabad

We are in an era where health diagnostics can mean the difference between a life saved and a life lost. Vijaya Diagnostic Centre has now become the standard for sample accuracy and report delivery time. With a history of more than 40 years, it has redefined the nation's diagnostic framework, combining breakthrough technology backed by professionals with sensitivity at every step.

Vijaya Diagnostic maintains precision, quality & transparency throughout the journey of diagnostics. Right from the time a patient enters a lab or gets their home collection done, to the time the final report reaches its destination, ‘zero-error, zero-delay’ processes at Vijaya are tailored to provide quality at every touch point.

Digital Transformation in Diagnostics


Vijaya Diagnostic Centre has adopted new-age technology to ensure the reliability of samples and faster reporting. The state-of-the-art diagnostic centre has more than 160 branches across India, and each diagnostic unit is connected through a centralised LIMS (Laboratory Information Management System). This LIMS ensures that patient data handling, sample tracing and report generation are done in a standardised manner. It also reduces the risk of human errors.

The LIMS system also supports real-time barcode tracking of samples, from the point of collection to storage, preventing any likelihood of sample mix-up or mislabeling. This intelligent automation accelerates processing time and also increases the accuracy of the results.

Automation at Core: High-Throughput Labs

Vijaya Diagnostic has NABL/NABH-certified labs with state-of-the-art automated equipment, including Roche, Abbott, Siemens, and Beckman Coulter technology. These analysers are capable of analysing thousands of tests per hour with minimal human assistance, thereby minimising the variation and enhancing the reliability.

All the instruments go through preventive maintenance and regular validation to ensure the best performance. Barcoded tubes and robotic loading of samples make for a smooth running, which also reinforces confidence in the diagnosis.

Skilled Professionals, Stringent SOPs

As Vijaya sees it, human expertise is irreplaceable. With a staff of more than 2,000 pathologists, radiologists, microbiologists, biochemists, lab technicians and support personnel, every result is funnelled through multiple, overlapping layers of checks before it is released.

The organisation follows the internationally accepted standard operating procedures (SOPs) in all the tests it conducts. Collection of samples is carried out by trained phlebotomists using sterile techniques to guarantee non-contaminated material. Quality control procedures are embedded at each stage of processing. From accessioning through analysis and review, to maintaining quality.

In radiology, for example, the dual-reading system employed in Vijaya’s centres means that every scan is independently read by two radiologists for the correct interpretation. In addition, similar double-verification procedures are used in pathology and molecular diagnostics.

Rapid Turnaround Without Compromising Quality

While most diagnostic centers struggle to strike a balance between speed and accuracy, Vijaya Diagnostic Centre has mastered the art of delivering reports on time without compromising on precision. For over 1,700 different tests, the average turnaround time is among the fastest in the industry, with reports for routine blood tests often available within 6 to 12 hours.

Emergency and high-priority tests are processed in fast-track lanes within the labs, often yielding results in under 2 hours. Advanced imaging reports such as MRI and CT scans are typically delivered within 24 hours - a benchmark that is rarely achieved elsewhere without delays.

What distinguishes Vijaya is its real-time report delivery ecosystem. Once verified, reports are auto-uploaded to a secure patient portal and sent via SMS/email, ensuring instant access for both doctors and patients. This instant availability has proven life-saving in cases where quick diagnosis leads to immediate treatment.

Rigorous Internal and External Quality Checks

In order to remain clinically robust, Vijaya Diagnostics conducts daily internal quality control (IQC) checks and is also a part of External Quality Assurance(EQA) programs.

Every test result is compared with global benchmarks, and any deviation; no matter how small, is flagged and followed up with proper investigation and correction. These ongoing validations mean the results are not only timely but credible.

Further, the technicians of Vijaya’s specialised labs take part in the inter-laboratory proficiency testing, which maintains standardisation between labs of the diagnostic chain. So, a patient giving a sample in a centre at Hyderabad or Visakhapatnam can be assured of the same accuracy.

Home Sample Collection with High Accuracy

Understanding the increasing need for convenience, Vijaya has developed a robust home sample collection network. Currently operational in over 50 cities, this service ensures that patients, especially the elderly and those with mobility issues, can receive diagnostic care from the comfort of their homes.

Each home collection kit is barcoded and temperature-controlled, maintaining sample integrity during transit. Logistics personnel are GPS-tracked, and all home samples are routed to the nearest high-throughput lab within hours, minimizing degradation and enabling same-day processing.

A Commitment to Transparent Reporting

Vijaya Diagnostic’s patient-first approach is deeply rooted in transparent communication. Patients can access detailed breakdowns of their reports online, complete with doctor comments, reference ranges, and health advisories. Each test report includes insights on clinical relevance and follow-up suggestions where needed.

This commitment to patient education helps users better understand their results, increasing trust and engagement. For those who require additional support, Vijaya offers teleconsultation services with certified doctors to interpret reports and recommend next steps.
