Blind QC trend presentation

Blind testing is used to evaluate performance of the radiobioassay laboratory. DOE-STD-1112-2019 requires a radiobioassay program to perform blind testing at a documented frequency including accuracy, false positive, false negative, and sensitivity evaluations. INL trends accuracy determinations over time for bias, agreement, and precision. Trends have been identified for certain isotopes in urine and feces that have not been fully explained. This presentation will review those identified trends and discuss possible causes and solutions.
