The Medical Laboratory Science Council of Nigeria (MLSCN) has called on the federal government to upgrade laboratories of public hospitals to enable them get international certification.

Speaking during the 50th anniversary of the council yesterday in Abuja, Acting Registrar of the council, Sir Tosan Erhabor, said doing so would reduce medical tourism.

Erhabor said many laboratories in Nigeria have not acquired the requisite ISO15189 international certification and the council was working assiduously to ensure they get it done.
