When: This event will be taking place from 21/01/2012 whereby the videos will be available on our public access website and you tube for the whole year. In June, It will also be projected on the screen during the lecture taking place as part of the Trust Grand Round.
Description: Two short videos created by Pathology Departments of the Royal Liverpool Hospital. These give a brief introduction to the activities which occur in order to provide pathology services.
The first video is a short tour of a Biochemistry laboratory commencing with specimen delivery and concluding with the specimen being reported by a Pathologist. This includes a short commentary in the background explaining how the specimen is prepared for reporting; including use of immunohistochemistry and cytogenetics. In addition an emphasis on providing correct patient information and clinical details to aid the diagnosis is made.

The second video is based in the Virology laboratory. It is a short, lighthearted video which aims to show people what services are available from their Regional Specialist Virology Unit. Although only brief, it is hoped it shines some light on the important role played by this group of Healthcare Professionals in providing a high-quality health service.

The Medical Microbiology Laboratory is also promoting their services through a PowerPoint presentation. The presentation describes the journey of a specimen through the department and they have been presenting it to a variety of audiences.
