The German standard is called LDT.
PIT is in Australia.
PIT (unlike LDT) isn't really a proper standard, in that you can't break 
results down to
individual values, you get the report is a single lump of free text, there is 
no convention on formatting
so the results have to be stored differently.
There is a PIT parser in gnumed/gnumed/hherb/test-area/gmPITParser.py
To get it working, we need:
        - a name-matching algorithm (Horst, can you contribute yours?)
        - a new, fairly simple [just a listbox and a wxHTML widget] reports GUI
(Sebastians', although very good, is built around the reasonable assumption
that path. results are parseable down to the numeric elements)
