Publisher's Synopsis
This comprehensive, practical guide demonstrates how to perform the clinical calculations used in each area of the laboratory to ensure accurate patient results. The book's three major sections cover basic mathematics principles, calculations for specificareas of the clinical laboratory, and statistical calculations used to test instrument performance. Each chapter covers a specific mathematical calculation, and the well-organized format emphasizes an in-depth understanding of these calculations, rather than straight memorization. Step-by-step examples reinforce the concepts, and calculation "templates" ensure correct calculations every time.
