The member organizations of the Cytology Education and Technology Consortium believe there are significant flaws in current cytology proficiency testing regulations. The most immediate needed modifications include lengthening the required testing interval, utilizing stringently validated and continuously monitored slides, changing the grading scheme, and changing the focus of the test from the individual to laboratory level testing. Integration of new computer-assisted and located-guided screening technologies into the testing protocols is necessary for the testing protocol to be compliant with the law.
细胞学教育与技术联盟的成员组织认为,当前的细胞学能力验证规定存在重大缺陷。最迫切需要的修改包括延长所需的测试间隔、使用经过严格验证和持续监测的玻片、改变评分方案,以及将测试重点从个人层面测试转变为实验室层面测试。将新的计算机辅助和定位引导筛查技术整合到测试方案中,对于使测试方案符合法律规定是必要的。
