摘要

Method for analysing a component of a medical sample by means of an automatic analyser, in which a reaction of the sample is carried using a reagent system and a physically detectable measured variable X resulting from the reaction of the sample with the reagent system is measured in order to determine at least one measured value R for a specific sample, and in which the at least one measured value R is further processed in a processing step by means of a processing unit in order to determine an analytical result A therefrom. According to the invention, in the processing step use is made of the results of neural network training in which for a plurality of standard samples for which the analytical result A is known in each case at least one measured value or one measurement result derived from a plurality of measured values Ri is applied to the input of a neural network, and the analytical result A or a known auxiliary variable combined with the analytical result is applied to the output of the neural network.
