Personalized medicine for improved patient care | Keynote by Dr Renée Ruhaak

In this keynote delivered during the 150th anniversary celebrations of the Bureau International des Poids et Mesures (BIPM), Dr Renée Ruhaak (Leiden University Medical Center) explores how metrology and standardisation underpin precision diagnostics — and why this is essential for delivering personalised medicine and improving patient care. Focusing on mass spectrometry-based diagnostics in clinical chemistry, Dr Ruhaak explains how laboratory medicine relies on accurate, comparable measurements across time and place — so that results (and decision limits) remain consistent from one hospital, country or test system to another. She further outlines how metrological traceability supports global decision limits, reference values and treatment targets, and why repeating costly clinical studies for each manufacturer is neither feasible nor desirable.
