The next IFCC webinar “Metrology and Clinical Laboratory” will be held on 31 Aug, 2021.
Metrology is the science of measurements and their applications. It deals with the measurements, systems of units and instruments used to make them. Based on the data obtained from the measurements, decisions are taken. That is why it is very important that these data are reliable, reproducible and comparable between laboratories. The aim of metrology is to define and materialize the units of measurement and establish the traceability chain.
