abstract = {A History of the Department of Clinical Biochemistry of the University Children’s Hospital in Cracow

	The University Children’s Hospital in Cracow, better known as the Prokocim Hospital, is celebrating its 50th anniversary. The clinics and wards have always been supported by a medical diagnostic laboratory. The Department of Clinical Biochemistry has been providing services to the young patient from the opening day of the hospital, thus it is also its jubilee. The foundation of the laboratory, its equipment and development was made possible thanks to a considerable US support, as well as the organizational skills of the laboratory of Prof. Zdzisław Szafran – the first head of the Department. From the very beginning, the diagnostic laboratories were equipped with various types of analyzers and smaller hardware of US origin. This kind of assistance was not delivered to other places behind the Iron Curtain during the Cold War. Up to this day, the hospital laboratory in the University Children’s Hospital in Cracow offers a wide range of measurement tests from very basic to highly specialized ones. From the very beginning, the Department of Clinical Biochemistry also fulfils its educational function, educating students of medicine, pharmacy and clinical chemistry.
