Join the Royal College of Physicians of Edinburgh for the next in our series of online International Medical Updates (IMU) which brings together experts from Bangladesh to provide an overview on Tuberculosis: Present and Future.

Tuberculosis (TB) is an ancient disease, which is still prevalent globally, particularly in South East Asia. We know that TB affects many parts of the body, but is still very challenging to diagnose and treat. With the number of drug resistant TB cases steadily increasing, the management of this disease is resulting in more patients requiring critical care. During this IMU we will explore these new and increasing challenges, Extrapulmonary TB, and the management of TB in special situations.

This IMU is free to all physicians in Bangladesh, Members and Fellows of RCPE and all trainees.

Delegates will have the opportunity to submit questions to the speakers which will be addressed live at the event, 8.00 -10.00pm (Bangladesh Standard Time)/ 3.00 - 5.00pm (UK).

We would like to express our sincere thanks to Professor Quazi Tarikul Islam, RCPE RA from Bangladesh for his support in developing this event. 

This event allows the opportunity for delegates to watch the presentations live, or at their convenience for up to 28 days following the original broadcast. Please note that the talks will be available to view on-demand by the second working day after the live event. Delegates can continue to register for on-demand access only after the live event has taken place. Please note that access closes 28 days after the original broadcast, not after the point of booking.
