Quality assurance and quality control

Diagnostic errors are a high-priority patient safety issue – and image analysis using artificial intelligence could help detect and prevent mistakes

To provide diagnostic algorithms with uniform, valid input, digital pathology images must be standardized to real-world colors

Digital pathology can be hampered by poor-quality slide images, but HistoQC aims to address the issue by automatically filtering slides by quality

Washing and reusing pipette tips could open the door to a greener and cheaper future for laboratories

QC operations are costly for laboratories – but more efficient materials with better long-term stability can reduce those investments and save lives

David Rimm challenges the sensitivity and reproducibility of a new assay for PD-L1 detection.

No investment is more important for laboratory quality and patient care than investment in laboratory personnel.

A new initiative, Continuous Quality Improvement Awareness Month, aims to help pathologists get on board with CQI

Liquid biopsy has shown promise as a rapid, minimally invasive way to profile tumors – but are commercially available tests accurate and consistent?
