Distinguishing Tumour from Normal Tissue Focussed Webinar 2024

28/03/2024
Looking at a range of normal tissues and discussing the histological changes observed during malignancy that provide the ability to identify the presence of tumours.

Effective Internal Auditing Focussed Webinar 2024

28/03/2024
Looking at a range of normal tissues and discussing the histological changes observed during malignancy that provide the ability to identify the presence of tumours.

Health Care Scientist Reporting in Histopathology: Stage A: GI, Gynae & Skin Exam Preparation Day

24/06/2024
This day has been designed specifically for those working towards the scientist reporting qualification and approaching or contemplating undertaking their stage A examination.
The day has been developed by Karen Ezard, Laura Saberton, Clare Raubusch who have experience in and have qualified through the part A examination.
There are Gastro-intestinal, Gynaecology and Skin modules which will run concurrently.
This is an exam preparation course. There will be advice and useful hints and tips from those that have taken the examinations along with an opportunity to discuss submitting a successful portfolio but it is not a morphology course. Participants will undertake a mock examination based around cases that might easily appear in the exam. Individual detailed feedback on performance will be provided to each candidate after the course either by e-mail or MS Teams, as per individual request.
The programme has been updated to make it suitable for those studying for the limited scope reporting options.

Introduction to Immunocytochemistry Webinar 2024

18/08/2024
This webinar provides a basic introduction and training in the theory and practice of ICC. Delegates will acquire the knowledge to recognise and assess ICC stained sections used in diagnostic Cellular Pathology. Utilises presentations, hands on and discussion-based sessions.

Rapid On-Site Evaluation of Respiratory Cytology

22/04/2024
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.
At the end of the course the participants should:
• Understand the sample collection and preparation methods for these samples.
• Understand pre and post analytical variables. • Assess adequacy.
• Be able to recognise basic cell types.
• Be able to distinguish between clearly benign cells and those requiring further assessment.
• Understand the ancillary techniques that can be used in each case.
• Understand the equipment requirements.
• Understand the health & safety and information governance requirements.

Introduction to Cellular Component, Tissue Morphology & Tissue Recognition Webinar-2024

16/10/2024
This webinar and associated microscope workshop, introduces the four basic tissue types: epithelial tissue, connective tissue, muscle tissue, and nervous tissue, and provides basic knowledge and competence in the microscopic recognition of normal histological tissue and some key aspects of pathological tissue. Utilises presentations, hands on and discussion-based sessions.

Back to Basics – Quality Management Systems Focussed Webinar 2024

14/03/2024
This focus webinar is designed to introduce new personnel and students or qualified scientific staff who wish to learn about the importance of ‘quality’ in their day-to-day work.

Troubleshooting AB / PAS / DPAS Staining Focussed Webinar

27/08/2024
This one-hour focused webinar will include the following subject matter that covers both staining techniques:
- Brief discussion of the types of tissue elements demonstrated and their clinical significance
- An outline of the staining chemistry principles
- An outline of the UK NEQAS CPT expected optimal staining criteria
- Discussion of how failures in the protocol steps affect optimal staining performance
- Presentation of data derived from UK NEQAS CPT assessments
- Discussion of how to avoid or troubleshoot the most common staining problems
An outline of possible quality measures suitable for monitoring performance

Tissue Preparation Techniques Webinar 2024

13/08/2024
This webinar introduces the selection and use of appropriate fixatives for sample preparation, the rationale of tissue selection, processing and embedding procedures and theory, including performing decalcification, and the use of a microtome for tissue section preparation. Utilises presentations, and discussion-based sessions.

BMT Introductory Sessions

12/12/2026
