as the the meaning of expression 'professional and technical services', a service in the course of medical profession is a professional service and hence any payment to that pursuant shall liable to be deducted the tax under Sec.194J.

It would be more appropriate to deduct TDS under section 194J as section itself says technical services falls under 194J and payment to testing lab is payment for services provided in technical aspect.
