Abstract
In the clinical laboratory, flow cytometry assays are critical to providing diagnostic and prognostic information to the treating clinicians. A validation or verification provides confidence that the assay will yield reliable results that can be trusted to make critical medical decisions. The following performance specifications should be included in a validation for laboratory developed tests as needed: accuracy (or trueness), precision (reproducibility and repeatability), detection capability, selectivity, reference range, and sample and reagent stability. We define these terms and present our approach to validation of several common flow cytometry assays, including examples of a leukemia/lymphoma assay and a paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria (PNH) assay.
期刊介绍：
Cytometry Part B: Clinical Cytometry features original research reports, in-depth reviews and special issues that directly relate to and palpably impact clinical flow, mass and image-based cytometry. These may include clinical and translational investigations important in the diagnostic, prognostic and therapeutic management of patients. Thus, we welcome research papers from various disciplines related [but not limited to] hematopathologists, hematologists, immunologists and cell biologists with clinically relevant and innovative studies investigating individual-cell analytics and/or separations. In addition to the types of papers indicated above, we also welcome Letters to the Editor, describing case reports or important medical or technical topics relevant to our readership without the length and depth of a full original report.
