Overview

In this one-day symposium we will discuss a selection of specimen types with challenging morphology and their ancillary tests. Attendees will hear about the role of molecular testing on cytology specimens, particularly of the respiratory tract and lympho-recticular system. This symposium is aimed at trainees and consultants in cytopathology, particularly those newly qualified or interested in updating their knowledge.

This event is now fully booked, the waiting list is now closed. The symposium will be re-run at a later date.
