Abstract
|
|
|
|
The importance of quality control for dramatically growing genetic tests continues to be emphasized with increasing clinical demands. Diagnostic genetics subcommitee of KSQACP performed two trials for cytogenetic study in 2006. Cytogenetic surveys were performed by 40 laboratories and answered correctly in most laboratories except some problems in karyotype nomenclature and the detection of complex cytogenetic abnormalities in hematologic neoplasias. The molecular genetic test surveys included many kinds of tests like M. tuberculosis, HBV, HCV, HPV, leukemias/lymphomas, APOE genotyping, MTHFR genotyping, BRCA1 & BRCA2, Duchenne muscular dystrophy, and Huntington disease. Molecular genetic surveys showed excellent results in most of participants. External quality assessment program for genetic analysis in 2006 was proved to be helpful in continuous education and evaluation of quality improvement.
