Pathologists, clinical chemists, and toxicologists; practicing clinicians, fellows and residents in pathology, internal medicine, emergency medicine and family practice.Cuprins
Section I: Sources of errors in clinical laboratories: An overview
1. Variation, errors, and quality in the clinical laboratory
2. Errors in patient preparation, specimen collection, anticoagulant and preservative use: how to avoid such pre-analytical errors
3. Sample processing and specimen misidentification issues: major sources of pre-analytical errors
4. Effect of patient-related factors on clinical laboratory test results
5. Interferences of hemolysis, lipemia and high bilirubin on laboratory tests
6. Immunoassay design
7. Overview of other sources of interferences in immunoassays: prozone effect and interferences from heterophilic antibodies and autoantibodies
8. Biotin interference in clinical laboratory tests: sporadic problem or a serious clinical issue?
Section II: Sources of errors in clinical chemistry laboratory
9. Challenges in routine clinical chemistry testing analysis of small molecules

Recenzii
Praise for the first edition:
"This would be a must for the laboratory medicine resident who has to explain why results don't correlate with clinical disease." --Doody.com, 2013
"It will be of great value to all laboratory directors and trainees in laboratory medicine and the technical staff who perform the tests in daily practice." --Donald Young, MD, PhD, Department of Pathology & Laboratory Medicine, University of Pennsylvania Perelman School of Medicine, Philadelphia, PA
