Total Analytic Error discussed in Clin Lab News

Posted by Sten Westgard, MS

The September issue of Clinical Laboratory News has an article by Westgard and Westgard on Total Analytic Error: From Concept to Application

We also have a longer version of the article on the website.

There has been a debate over the scope of error that we should be trying to encompass and estimate. "Total Error" is usually a shorthand for "Total Analytic Error" in the laboratory. For those trying to understand the different kinds of "Total Error" that could be estimated, this article is a good review.
