Drug testing is critical to patient care, whether it’s for compliance to prescribed medications, identification of drugs in the immediate overdose setting, or exposure to toxins that may cause long term deleterious effects, such as lead. But there’s an important resources to help pathologists address these challenges--the second edition of Clinical Toxicology Testing: A Guide for Laboratory Professionals (https://capatholo.gy/2IfWvlJ).
