In addition, the audit records the amount of surgical training that individual members provide. This latest report will show that the BAETS is a truly professional body demonstrating its commitment to audit.

Since the launch of BAETS web-based data entry system in August 2005, some 11,000 endocrine operations have been submitted by BAETS members on surgery to the thyroid, parathyroid, adrenal and pancreas. Prior to the BAETS involvement with Dendrite the audit did not exist.
