Abstract
The present disclosure pertains to methods and systems that calibrate a diagnostic analyzer by first determining whether first diagnostic results exceed a predetermined threshold from a first diagnostic target and adjusting one or more laser settings for the diagnostic analyzer in response. New patient samples are interrogated by the diagnostic analyzer, using the adjusted laser parameters, to determine weighted averaged diagnostic results. In a case where the weighted averaged diagnostic results fall outside of the permissible range, multiplying factors for calibration factors that permit the weighted averaged diagnostic results to fall within the permissible range are determined, and the diagnostic analyzer is calibrated by adjusting the calibration factors corresponding to the parameters of the diagnostic analyzer based at least in part on the multiplying factors.
