Cytology and Haematology - Purely Practical
Aims
This highly interactive workshop will give you the ideal grounding in identifying common haematological and cytological abnormalities using the microscope of the in-clinic lab. During these sessions, carefully chosen smears from suitable haematology and cytology cases will allow a hands - on approach under guidance from the course tutor to ensure that confidence is built in cell identification and appreciation of morphological changes.
You will be sent the course notes in advance and should ensure you have read them before attending as formal classroom lectures will not occur. All of your time will be spent practising the microscopy techniques included in the learning objectives to maximise your opportunity to master these new skills.
We hope that at the end of the day the delegates will return to their clinics full of enthusiasm for diagnostic microscopy.
