How these factsheets are created
LCTF factsheets are a trusted source of guidance intended for patient use. Our factsheets are written by Dr Laurence Knott, an experienced medical author, and peer reviewed by vasculitis consultants.
Our peer reviewers are Professor Neil Basu (Consultant Rheumatologist and Professor of Musculoskeletal Medicine and Vasculitis at the University of Glasgow) and Professor David Kluth (Consultant Nephrologist and an honorary lecturer at Edinburgh University).
Professor Basu and Professor Kluth are both also trustees of the Lauren Currie Twilight Foundation.
