This guide provides an in-depth discussion of the [[physician office laboratory]] (POL) and its place in the [[clinical laboratory]] world. Though a lot has changed in regards to the POL and the role it plays in clinical testing—including a pandemic—the POL remains an important part of the clinical testing culture today and deserves discussion. This guides discusses that clinical environment, as well as the testing domains typical to the POL, the data management considerations it must make, and the regulatory and quality assurance issues that come with the territory. Also included are a great many useful, POL-friendly resources like CLIA-waived test vendors, education programs for laboratorians, and more.
 
This second edition, among other things, updates numerous statistics, adds new findings related to POLs, and reorganizes the structure to be more consistent with current LIMSwiki guides. Trends concerning reimbursement for tests, molecular testing, pharmacy labs, and more were added to the guide, as was more up-to-date information about return on investment, data management practices, and quality assurance. All reference resources in the guide were also refreshed for this update to show the latest education programs, CLIA-waived offerings, and more.

In their 1974 multi-volume series Systematic Materials Analysis, Richardson and Peterson say the following about the then state of materials testing[1]:

It is both exciting and dismaying to observe the parade of new and refined instrumental methods available for the analysis of materials—exciting because these instruments provide opportunities for faster and more reliable answers to material analysis problems, dismaying because one is hard pressed to evaluate these various instruments for a given task. Materials analysis often involves the complete characterization of a material, including structural and textural analyses in addition to chemical analysis ... These volumes not only comprise a brief, comprehensive reference for the materials analyst but also provides a source of information for the engineer or researcher who must select the appropriate instrument for his immediate needs.
