NADO Screening. Prions, Tuberculosis, and More. (Individual)

This webinar will discuss several pertinent conditions for which non-transplant anatomic donation organizations screen, such as tuberculosis, CJD, radiation exposure, and other relevant diseases. This talk will also include information on collecting data from families and the donors themselves, where possible, as well as interpreting required details from available medical records to ensure the safety of our staff and the researchers and clinicians who will work with these gifts.
