This webinar provides a basic introduction and understanding to the theory, principles and application and practical experience in muscle biopsies in diagnostic Cellular Pathology. Utilises presentations, and discussion-based sessions.

THIS WEBINAR EXPLORES THE CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE OF SOLUBLE INTERLEUKIN-2 RECEPTOR (SIL-2R) IN IMMUNOLOGICAL DISEASES.

ROSE is an expanding field particularly in head and neck, EBUS and EUS. The benefits of ROSE are well documented and multiple guidelines for best practice promote ROSE. Appropriate planning of services and training of staff is essential for any service to run safely and effectively. This course will aim to help staff providing the service to understand its many. These training days are suitable for those preparing for the IBMS ROSE qualification but are equally suited to those who just want to learn more about the service they are helping to provide. The course covers core medical, technical, and morphological aspects of head and neck, EBUS and EUS ROSE.
We have organised these days so that participants can attend the whole course or just selected days.

Course Aims.

• Understand the sample collection and preparation methods for these samples.
• Understand pre and post analytical variables. • Assess adequacy.
