Transference and Validation of Reference Intervals [PDF]
Reference intervals are the most widely used decision-making tool in laboratory medicine and serve as the basis for many of the interpretations of pathology results. Although laboratories are well versed in method verification and validation to assess if methods are fit-for-purpose, less importance is commonly put on selecting the most appropriate ...
