Hematology laboratories have a vital role in providing diagnostic testing for a wide range of blood disorders. Improvements in hematology laboratory diagnostics are highly dependent on new discoveries on blood disorder pathology, the translation of new knowledge into assays for clinical testing purposes, and research that assesses, compares, and optimizes diagnostic practices. This article reviews the author's experiences with research leading to improved blood disorder diagnosis, including research studies on Quebec platelet disorder and other bleeding disorders, evaluations of practice, and research on the external quality assessment of diagnostic testing for platelet function disorders. The importance of research to advancing diagnostic testing for blood disorders is emphasized.
血液学实验室在提供广泛的血液疾病诊断测试方面发挥着重要作用。血液学实验室诊断的改进高度依赖于血液疾病病理学的新发现、新知识转化为临床测试目的的检测方法，以及评估、比较和优化诊断实践的研究。本文回顾了作者在导致血液疾病诊断改进的研究方面的经验，包括魁北克血小板疾病和其他出血性疾病的研究、实践评估以及血小板功能障碍诊断测试的外部质量评估研究。强调了研究对推进血液疾病诊断测试的重要性。
