PROCEEDINGS OF THE WORKSHOP ON MEASUREMENT TRACEABILITY FOR CLINICAL LABORATORY TESTING AND IN VITRO DIAGNOSTIC TEST SYSTEMS.(Brief Article)

Journal of Research of the National Institute of Standards and Technology | July 1, 2001 | Copyright

The Proceedings of the Workshop on Measurement Traceability for Clinical Laboratory Testing and In Vitro Diagnostic Test Systems is now available on CD in PDF format. This NIST-hosted workshop was held in November 2000 to address the standards needs of the clinical laboratory community in light of new international requirements. The workshop was cosponsored by several organizations having vested interest in developing a globally recognized clinical traceability infrastructure. This publication documents 10 talks given by national and international experts who provided the ...
