title: [Feasibility study for development of automatic calibration system for clinical laboratory analyzers].
abstract: This report summarizes the results of a "Feasibility Study for Development of Automatic Calibration System for Clinical Laboratory Analyzers", that was entrusted to the JCCLS (Japanese Committee for Clinical Laboratory Standards) as a project for 2007FY by the Mechanical Social Systems Foundation. The purpose of this study was to establish a calibration system for clinical laboratory analyzers that are commonly used in Japanese laboratories, in order to promote the standardization of clinical tests. Standardization of an automatic calibration system for clinical laboratory analyzers will facilitate accuracy control without having to depend on the skill of laboratory operators, which will achieve the further standardization of clinical tests.
