Hello
 
I just wanted to remind you about an excellent patient information website
called Lab Tests Online UK: www.labtestsonline.org.uk
<http://www.labtestsonline.org.uk/>  
 
This is an off-shoot of the American website (so remember to include the UK
in the URL or you will go to the US site!) and is designed specifically to
help UK patients better understand the many clinical lab tests that are part
of routine care as well as diagnosis and treatment of a broad range of
conditions and diseases. It provides:
*         Detailed descriptions of tests
*         Descriptions of illness, cross referenced to relevant rests
*         News on advances on laboratory testing
*         Links to other free internet services that can help answer
questions about patients health and treatment
 
Mike Hallworth, Chairman of Lab Tests Online UK,  is Clinical Biochemist
here at the Royal Shrewsbury Hospital and is happy to hear from anybody who
has any queries.
