Abstract
An automated laboratory process monitoring method for a computer controlled automated cytology system initializes lab process assessment slide data so as to produce an initial batch of qualified slides. Monitor parameters are extracted from the initial batch of qualified slides so as to determine control limits. Field data is monitored by comparing the field data to the control limits.
