[The management of advanced clinical laboratory].
Considering good laboratory management in highly specialized and sophisticated medical services, I here focus on university hospitals, so-called special functioning hospitals and other hospitals of equivalent size. I describe my personal view as a medical technologist on laboratory management, which is pretty much affected by difficult financial condition surrounding medical services. Also, I touch upon quality assurance of laboratory tests and technologies, how to support clinical practices and conduct business management. Of particular importance may be cost and labor saving in laboratory practices and to develop advanced and sophisticated medical technologies. Furthermore, it will be essential to educate and produce excellent and multidisciplinary medical technologists competent at laboratory practices and management so that we medical technologists contribute to daily clinical practices and progress in medical sciences.
