Comments from the previous course

• Well done – one of the best courses I’ve been too
• Thank you for such an interesting, informative and well-run course
• Excellent subject coverage, great cases/images, friendly and interactive environment
• Very good variety of pathology and excellent experience of tutors
• Online access to the presentations to refer back to is a really useful resource
• Excellent overview of all pathology – see so little in DGH
• Well- structured and organised and good quality speakers
• This will improve confidence in analysing imaging and telling clinicians which patients to refer to the centre, hence reducing referral rates
• Increased confidence in reporting bone tumours and diagnosis of these lesions
• Confidence to manage B&ST lesions more effectively and what to do before referral
