lt has always been necessary to try to ensure reliable resuits from the tests which are performed in the haematological laboratory, but never more so than today. This is because of the special problems resulting from the use of automated Instrument systems which function with little direct human control, and from the ever increasing workload which makes it impossible for the laboratory staff to give close attention to every blood sample that enters the laboratory.

Quality assurance is the all embracing term for the procedures used. lt comprises internal quality control, external quality assessment and proficiency surveillance.

In this book the significance of these different aspects is described and the practices are Iaid out in detail. There are chapters on the preparation and use of reference material standards, calibrators and control preparation, laboratory organization and management, health and safety in the laboratory, instrument and kit evaluation, trouble shooting and how to resolve the problems of unsatisfactory performance. The final section provides a series of exercises for a training programme in quality assurance based on training courses organized by the World Health Organisation. lt will also be invaluable to those sitting for professional examinations in pathology.

The editors and contributors are eminent haematologists, authorities in the field of quality assurance and standardization, who have been closely associated with various aspects of the activities of the International Committee for Standardization in Haematology.
