Clinicallaboratories have long focused their attention onquality control methods and quality assessment pro-grams dealing with analytical aspects of testing. How-ever, a growing body of evidence accumulated inrecent decades demonstrates that quality in clinicallaboratories cannot be assured by merely focusing onpurely analytical aspects. The more recent surveys onerrors in laboratory medicine conclude that in thedelivery of laboratory testing, mistakes occur morefrequently before (pre-analytical) and after (post-ana-lytical) the test has been performed.
