The TB Review course was held from 25th-27th May 2001 at the Tata Memorial Hospital, Mumbai.

The program went off well with around 250 delegates from all over the country. Various aspects of tuberculosis is different organ systems were covered in detail. The second day was the most intense and fun and ended with a quiz where tuberculosis and non-tuberculosis cases were mixed.

We thank the faculty and all those who helped us for making this meet a success.

A CD of the lectures delivered during this conference, with audio and video, has been produced by Indegene and is available for Rs 500.
