501(c) 3 volunteer based nonprofit dedicated to improving health care by building accurate, accessible, and enduring diagnostic services in resource-limited areas through reliable systems, training, and quality assurance. www.pathologistsoverseas.com
EQA results are not just numbers. Labs in our program used their data to advocate for equipment upgrades, review service contracts and address infrastructure gaps. #EQA #ClinicalChemistry #PublicHealth #GlobalHealth #Pathsky
How do labs ensure their test results are trustworthy?
EQA helps labs compare results, find gaps, and improve processes. This leads to more accurate diagnoses and better patient care. #GlobalHealth #PathSky #Africa #Labs #Publichealth
The real impact often happens behind the scenes. Building reliable internal systems allows us to better support our labs and partners.
