摘要

细胞技术专家是细胞病理学团队不可或缺的成员,他们的作用超出了分析载玻片。他们对细胞修复、实验室系统和工作流程有独特的理解,因为他们参与了各种实验室过程,这使他们成为质量控制、质量保证和质量改进措施的关键参与者。许多细胞技术专家认可执行质量保证和/或质量控制活动作为他们职责的一部分。在本文中,我们回顾了细胞技术专家参与的一些关键质量控制和保证措施,重点是他们如何在系统操作和改进中发挥主导作用。

Beyond the Microscope: Cytotechnologists' Integral Role in Quality Management.

Background: Cytotechnologists are integral members of the cytopathology team with their role extending beyond that of analyzing slides. They have a unique understanding of cytopreparation, laboratory systems, and workflows given their involvement in varied laboratory processes which makes them key players in quality control, quality assurance, and quality improvement measures. Many cytotechnologists endorse performing quality assurance and/or quality control activities as part of their duties.

Summary: In this article, we review some of the key quality control and assurance measures cytotechnologists are involved in with an emphasis on how they can take a leading role in systems operations and improvements.

Key messages: Cytotechnologists are essential to quality assurance and improvement in the cytopathology laboratory given their intimate knowledge and experience with cytopathology techniques and laboratory operations making them key contributors to maintaining and enhancing laboratory standards.

期刊介绍: With articles offering an excellent balance between clinical cytology and cytopathology, ''Acta Cytologica'' fosters the understanding of the pathogenetic mechanisms behind cytomorphology and thus facilitates the translation of frontline research into clinical practice. As the official journal of the International Academy of Cytology and affiliated to over 50 national cytology societies around the world, ''Acta Cytologica'' evaluates new and existing diagnostic applications of scientific advances as well as their clinical correlations. Original papers, review articles, meta-analyses, novel insights from clinical practice, and letters to the editor cover topics from diagnostic cytopathology, gynecologic and non-gynecologic cytopathology to fine needle aspiration, molecular techniques and their diagnostic applications. As the perfect reference for practical use, ''Acta Cytologica'' addresses a multidisciplinary audience practicing clinical cytopathology, cell biology, oncology, interventional radiology, otorhinolaryngology, gastroenterology, urology, pulmonology and preventive medicine.
