Abstract:
Since the Plan of Human Genome, the project as famous asthe Manhattan Project and the Apollo Project, has finished, it brings about rapid development in molecular diagnosis and leads to revolutionary breakthrough in in-vitro diagnostics directly. Molecular diagnostics have already applicatedextensively at present in tumor , genetic diseases, congenital anomalies, hematologic diseases, infectious disease, neuropsychiatric disorders and organ transplantation .The new molecular diagnostic technologies make much contributions to clinical decision in clinic practice ,whichmeanwhile brings with new challenges to medical laboratory (clinical laboratory) as well.The medical laboratory nowadays will face the demands of high quality and expectation from clinic as well as high risks .The risk consciousness, risk management and quality control should be enhanced in medical laboratory . Strict management and standardize operations should go through pre -examination processes, examination processes and post -examination processes.Every stuff should realizes the essence of “every number is a life”.Only in this way, the medical laboratory can appropriate the development of technology and medicine and the increasing demand of clinical diagnosis , treatment, prognosis, prediction and health management.
