2007 Annual Evidence Update on Endometriosis


Patient version	Introduction	Contents	Resources	Contributors

Welcome to the 2007 Annual Evidence Update on Endometriosis!

The Women's Health Specialist Library is holding its first Annual Evidence Update from Monday 2 April - Sunday 8 April. Focusing on endometriosis the Evidence Update aims to provide clinicians with the most up-to-date knowledge on the investigation and management of endometriosis. We know that it is very difficult for busy clinicians to keep up-to-date with the huge volume of literature that is published each year and so the Women's Health Specialist Library does this for you so that you don't have to!

Please use the links at the top of this page to access different aspects of the evidence update. We have also produced the Annual Evidence Update in PDF format:
