Aim
There is a drive in the NHS for early diagnosis. If this is to be achieved, practitioners must be able to recognise cancers. The problem is that a practitioner holds about 50,000 consultations before a head and neck cancer is identified. In law this is not accepted as a reason to overlook a cancer. The aim is to demonstrate tumours that regularly present a diagnostic challenge and arise repeatedly in medico-legal disputes.
Outcomes
At the end of the webinar the practitioner should have a technique to help identify most tumours in the head and neck.
What dentists say...
"A great way to gain CPD experience."
"Keep it up. I am a convert - I will definitely be participating in more "webinars"
"Excellent way to communicate not only with the presenter but also with other dentists.
Both informative and an enjoyable way to learn."
