Media Reviews
“The book, on the one hand, by working from the basics, is an excellent educational tool for those developing experience in the field of diabetes and on the other, through its real-life illustrations, can also be beneficial to the more experienced in facilitating the transition to use of the IFCC units of reporting." (Annals of Clinical Biochemistry, 1 September 2012)
“Using mainly case studies, this slim volume of 76 pages is an excellent aid to clinicians as they adjust to using the internationally recognised IFCC measurement which is replacing the current DCCT method of presenting HbA1c as a percentage of total Hb.” (Practical Diabetes International, July 2010)Author's Bio
