Our proficiency testing program for molecular pathology was established in Thailand since 2015 with a mission to advance the standards of molecular diagnostics for precision medicine.
Our program activities have been organized annually, with consistent support from the Royal College of Pathologists of Thailand and the Thai Society of Clinical Pathology. The program is also partially funded by private companies in Thailand.
TH NEQAS for Precision Molecular Pathology has been officially accredited as a Proficiency Testing Provider under ISO/IEC 17043 since 2021. For the year 2024, our program has 37 participating laboratories throughout Thailand.
TH NEQAS for Precision Molecular Pathology currently provides proficiency testing programs that cover a range of critical biomarkers for the targeted therapy of lung, colorectal, breast, and ovarian cancers with targeted therapies. In 2025, we are also introducing a proficiency testing program for non-invasive prenatal testing.
The proficiency testing programs provided by TH NEQAS incorporate unique features tailored to address clinical challenges. The proficiency testing samples distributed to participating laboratories each year contain a wide variety of clinically significant molecular abnormalities. These samples also include molecular abnormalities at low fractions to help laboratories evaluate the analytical sensitivity of their assays. Furthermore, the turnaround time for analysis and reporting is limited to closely simulate a real-world clinical laboratory service. This ensures a laboratory's readiness to deliver high-quality, timely patient care.
