Ask the experts! Best practices in quality control for the clinical laboratory
Join us for an immersive webinar where you will explore best practices in clinical laboratory quality control, featuring a laboratory tour, expert interviews, and interactive Q&A with industry leaders.
Quality control in the clinical diagnostics laboratory is essential for confidence in laboratory test results and consequently patient safety.
This interactive virtual experience will share concepts and practice for quality control in a modern laboratory with a virtual visit to the laboratory at the Marienhospital, Stuttgart, Germany.
We will highlight the key advantages to be gained from modern laboratory processes, instrumentation, test procedures, data analysis, and reporting.
