6000 newly diagnosed NENs a year in England alone. ~ 16 a day, ~ 1 every 90 minutes. Not as rare as we keep being told they are. And these figures exclude some types. buff.ly/ffdMkp8

✨A call to all patients to assist with advocacy and awareness ✅ Please share this free accredited course, endorsed by WONCA with your GP, physician, radiologist and any other medical people you come across in your NENs journey 🙏
Prof. Martyn Caplin: “NENs are more common than you think. The incidence is said to be now about between 6 or 8 per 100 000 population.” 👉If PCPs know about NENs, they can detect them. ✅Share with your PCP - the free #ThinkNENs CME-accredited e-learning: incalliance.org/think-nens/ #LetsTalkAboutNETs
