'14:30 "Is there a problem with reference
ranges?"
Dr Julian Barth, Consultant Chemical
Pathologist, Leeds General Infirmary
Dr Barth was asked for a
copy of his talk to go onto the website. Many
talks do take a great deal of hard work and some
people are understandably reticent to put such
work on websites, as Dr Barth was on this case.
If the talk is required for personal use/study
please contact Dr Barth using the details in the
ACB handbook and he may supply the presentation
on a named basis.
