Breast Imaging in Sydney : An Interactive Workstation-Based Adventure 2016

Breast Imaging in Sydney : An Interactive Workstation-Based Adventure is organized by International Institute for Continuing Medical Education (IICME), Inc. and would be held during Aug 18 - 21, 2016 at Shangri-La Hotel, Sydney, New South Wales, Australia. The target audience for this medical event are basically for radiologists with a special interest in Breast Imaging.

This intensive four day Breast Imaging course provides radiologists the unique opportunity to enhance their skills at early cancer detection through an interactive workshop at the workstation. Focus on separate days will be devoted to Tomosynthesis and Breast MRI.

Educational Objectives
By the end of this course, registrants will be able to:

• Apply new and improved skills in perception to the interpretation of mammograms. Gain a greater appreciation of the importance of meticulous perception techniques in the detection of subtle early breast cancer.
• Develop strategies to reduce the possibility of a missed lesion on mammography. Understand the new role of ultrasound in breast cancer detection, both with hand-held and automated systems.
• Appreciate the value added to mammography by tomosynthesis in boosting both sensitivity and specificity in breast cancer detection.
• Delineate the ever-increasing importance of Breast MR in the everyday practice of breast imaging.
• Gain a greater grasp of the potential roles of the emerging technologies of Molecular Breast Imaging, Contrast-enhanced Mammography, 3-D Ultrasound, and Optical Diffusion in Breast Cancer detection.
