Implementation of external quality control at tropical diseases reference laboratories

Centro per le Malattie Tropicali (CMT)

We want to assess applicability of an external quality control in the serological diagnosis of Chagas disease. Together with other laboratories of reference for Chagas disease diagnosis our aim is that of share this experience in order to improve quality of serological diagnosis in Chagas disease. This will be a pilot experience in Europe.
