Abstract:
There is significant research value in the secondary use of surplus human tissue which has been removed during clinical care and is stored in diagnostic archives. However, this value is limited without access to information about the person from whom the tissue was removed. This article focuses on safeguarding the patient’s identity using risk-mitigating mechanisms other than complete anonymisation to balance the public benefit of health research with the protection of individual rights and interests and facilitate the use of tissue samples linked with patient data.
