<p>The book that I have studied said “我看了化验结果。” but I’m wondering if “我看化验结果了” make sense or not. If the second one can be used, what’s the difference?</p>

Both make sense.

我看了化验结果: I have read the lab result.

我看化验结果了: I did read the lab result.

Example of second use case：

“你是不是没看化验结果？”

“我看化验结果了。”
