Register onlineLaboratory and radiological investigations are regularly used by GPs to diagnose pathologies, and with one in every two GP visits involving diagnostic referral, testing underpins every aspect of medicine.
This workshop will enhance patient outcomes by providing an increased level of understanding in relation to current guidelines in test result management.
This interactive workshop will cover pre-test and post-test counselling, dealing with incidentalomas, unexpected findings and how the simple request-form can optimise test outcomes. Pathways and guidelines related to diagnostic testing will be examined, as will matching the correct test to the symptom.
Radiologists from Envision Radiology will provide an overview on the types of imaging services currently available for diagnosis and treatment. Prostate imaging, cardiothoracic screening and paediatric imaging will be investigated.
Specialist Pathologists from Clinipath Pathology will present on the six major streams of pathology including biochemistry, haematology, cytology, microbiology, immunology and histopathology.
This workshop is delivered in partnership with Clinipath Pathology and Envision Radiology.
Learning outcomes
1. Develop an approach to ordering investigations based on history, examination findings, and relevant clinical guidelines.
2. Assess how investigation results guide your clinical decision-making.
3. Recognise the implications of abnormal results for both practitioner and patient.
4. Recognise the role of radiology in screening for cardiovascular disease and lung cancer.
5. Select appropriate imaging for paediatric conditions that present in general practice.
