Haematological Malignancy Diagnostic Service (HMDS) Course | 2-3 July 2026 London, United Kingdom

This is an interactive, case-based course with interspersed micro-lectures to address all the aspects of haematological malignancy diagnostic testing, and is designed to simulate working in an HMDS setting and integrated reporting. The cases cover a wide range of myeloid and lymphoid neoplastic entities primarily involving the bone marrow.
Each case will be available for participant-independent review of morphology (through whole slide imaging scans), immunophenotyping, histology, immunohistochemistry and genomic testing results. The participants will then be encouraged to determine the diagnoses followed by discussion with experts in the field. The interspersed lectures will discuss the different diagnostic test methodologies and their interpretation.
This course is aimed for any health care professional with an interest in haematological malignancy diagnostics, to include: haematology trainees and consultants, histopathology trainees and haematopathology/histopathology consultants as well as clinical scientists.
