What tools do you have for internal quality management? In Germany it is possible to have certification (ISO 9001) or a “Akkreditierung” and there are a lot of special cancer centers by the german cancer society. Here you must have a special “pit-fall management”. You have to use controls during immunhisto. You have to use CE-certified reagents. For immunhisto and molecular-pathology we have a nationwide test-system. Here you can see what’s going on in your lab. Witch tests are running quite good and with are running not so good.
