  1. Looking Ahead to Patient Risk Management
    We’re now living in a time when sophisticated automated systems continuously produce patient test results. Yet typical QC practices are based around a batch of patient samples, or are set by default to a once daily, regulatory minimum. Take your laboratory into the era of patient risk management.
