Die Aussagekraft eines Laborbefundes hängt entscheidend von der Präanalytik ab, also von Prozessen, die vor der eigentlichen Messung der Proben im Labor ablaufen. Dieses Buch beschreibt alle präanalytischen Variablen - Indikation der Anforderung über Probengewinnung, Transport und Lagerung der Probe...
