Diagnostic Technologies and Screening Panel (DTSP)
The DTSP looks at research suggestions that relate to screening programmes and interventions used or linked with this area. Research issues may include the performance of a single test or a chain of diagnostic and therapeutic decisions linking the test to a clinical result.
This panel has strong cross-membership links with the NHS National Screening Committee
