Laboratory medicine in the People's Republic of China.
In August 1979, 12 U.S. laboratory scientists visited the People's Republic of China in an attempt to introduce Chinese physicians and laboratorians to developments in laboratory medicine not yet known or understood in China. The author of this article, one of the group of visiting scientists, recounts the experience, and thus draws an interesting comparison between laboratory medicine in the United States with that in China.
