Details

This laboratory end-of-cycle report includes aggregated results for all laboratories and allows comparison of performance. This can be seen for individual markers and for the overall national screening programme.

The report provides summary statistics for the distribution of biochemical markers, including effects of factors such as ethnicity and smoking status. Laboratories also receive their individual detailed laboratory report directly.
