Data processing using an automated apparatus is not actually part
of the examination phase which involves the data collection
phase, but it results from a subsequent, technical step,
intermediate between the data collection and the comparison of
these collected data with standard values. Such intermediate
steps are not to be considered when assessing the diagnostic
character of a diagnostic method (see point 3.2)
