Recently, the National Center for Clinical Laboratories (NCCL) of the National Health Commission announced the results of the 2024 national clinical laboratory external quality assessment of “bioinformatics analysis for high-throughput sequencing detection of tumor somatic mutations.” Tianjin Baikang Hexin Medical Laboratory, the independent clinical trial execution window under ProteinT, once again passed this external quality assessment with a perfect score.
Statistical results of the external quality assessment
With the development of precision treatment, the importance of genetic testing in tumor diagnosis and treatment has become increasingly prominent. ProteinT has always been committed to providing high-quality clinical testing services. In this external quality assessment, the analysis results of the reported mutation types such as SNV, InDel, CNV and SV all received perfect scores, demonstrating our professional analytical capability and solid technical strength. In the future, we will continue to optimize our quality control system and improve our service level to provide better products and services for doctors and patients.
