Sentinel Node Biopsy training programme

The Head and Neck Cancer Foundation

Congress Centre

Thank you for registering with The Head and Neck Cancer Foundation, we look forward to working with you on these training sessions.

The training program complements the National Institute for Health Care and Excellence (NICE) recommendations that SNB is an alternative to elective neck dissection (END) and should be considered for patients with early (stage 1 &amp; 2) mouth cancer.The intention of this programme is to introduce SNB in a uniform way across the country with a well-structured and high quality course. The objective is to have a uniform standard of SNB practice in the UK proven by low incidence of false negative results and validated through an online data base. With your collaboration, we think we can deliver on these objectives. The accuracy of the SNB test depends on a team of people working together. Consequently, the training programme is designed for hospital teams attending together.PHASE 1: SNB TRAINING DAY**ATTENDED BY HOSPITAL TEAM (Surgery, Nuclear Medicine, Nursing &amp; Pathology) Workshops and Lectures on Legal &amp; Regulatory ProcessTake Away Pack for Phase 1 TrainingCopy of lectures, access to database, access to training videos (filmed lecture on SNB.
