Summary. Quality assurance is a vital prerequisite of good laboratory practice. The application and continuous scrutiny of adequate internal quality control measures are essential to ensure that laboratory performance is consistent from day to day. External quality assessment is particularly important to verify the accuracy and reliability of laboratory results Consequently, without appropriate IQC and EQA, laboratory results can have no true validity.
