Short films about thyroid disorders

We are delighted to be collaborating with CoMICs (Concise Medical Information Cines) who have produced a series of videos that combine illustrations and infographics to provide bite-sized information on various thyroid disorders.

Their CoMICS Lite film series is aimed at patients and their carers and is designed to give a short overview of thyroid conditions.
