Teach your students the math skills needed to perform accurate clinical laboratory calculations! Mathematics for the Clinical Laboratory, 5th Edition, demonstrates the calculations used in the analysis of test specimens. It begins by explaining basic mathematical principles, and then covers the types of calculations needed in specific areas of the clinical lab including urinalysis, hematology, immunohematology, and microbiology. Finally, it focuses on the statistical calculations used in quality assurance and quality control. Step-by-step examples reinforce understanding, and calculation templates and practical margin notes help students learn to make correct calculations every time.
