Audit of Finn Chamber patch test preparation.

Reproducibility of patch test reactions is an important aspect of patch testing. Thin layer rapid use epicutaneous tests (TRUE Test) are preloaded with allergen, whereas Finn Chambers are empty discs that have allergen applied from a syringe. The amount of allergen applied to each Finn Chamber is therefore potentially variable depending on technique.

A phase I-II study of synchronous chemoradiotherapy for poor prognosis locally advanced bladder cancer.

Patients And Methods: Patients with T2-T4a N0/NX M0 bladder cancer were entered into this single centre phase I-II study.
