Objective

This project is concerned with updating and expanding previous recommendations on the presentation of properties and their values in clinical laboratory sciences. The outcome will be a series of documents comprising terms, properties, units, and their code values in different clinical laboratory specialities for electronic transmission.

Progress
The following reports have been published or are in preparation:
