‘Results are more than just a number’ How lab results are generated & should be interpreted

Clinical Pathology | 59 mins

We are all used to get results from external laboratories and from our in-house analysers; but, have we ever asked ourselves if those results are accurate and how those should be interpreted? In this webinar, we will talk about pre-analytical, analytical and post analytical errors, and we will see how breed, age and sex may affect laboratory results. To make this webinar very practical and useful for day-to-day practice, we will follow a case-based approach and simple laboratory tips will be provided.
