09-11/06/2016 - IBUS: Multimodality Breast Imaging Course (Athens)

The IBUS Breast Imaging School has established itself as the leading international provider of the breast imaging courses with teaching programs covering all aspects of multimodality breast imaging and image-guided interventions. The secretariat is currently based in Italy.

IBUS courses consist of high-quality didactic presentations with international and local faculty members, and include practical workshops providing “hands-on” experience.

More than 100 courses have been held since 1991 with programmes in Africa, Asia, Europe, and North and South America.

Multimodality Breast Imaging Course will take place in Athens - Greece between 9 –11 June 2016.

The IBUS: Multimodality Breast Imaging Course consists of an intensive three-day teaching programme with theoretical and practical topics covering all forms of breast imaging.

The international and local faculty consists of imaging and breast disease experts selected to demonstrate the optimum utilization of imaging modalities for the detection and diagnosis of malignant and benign conditions using high resolution ultrasound, X-ray mammography and magnetic resonance imaging.

The course is suitable for clinicians with basic and advanced knowledge, and consists of lectures, interactive case studies and practical “hands-on” workshop sessions. Topics have been selected to provide a broad information base in which breast imaging techniques, interpretation criteria and interventional procedures are integrated to reflect recent technological improvements. The “hands-on” workshops form an essential part of the course, and provide the opportunity to participate in teaching sessions with faculty members.

The role of imaging and interventional procedures will be thoroughly evaluated in order to provide an accurate assessment prior to surgical excision, and the best possible clinical outcome for patients with breast disease. The course is formatted for breast surgeons,
gynaecologists, radiologists, oncologists, sonologists and other specialists using ultrasound to detect, diagnose and manage patients with early breast cancers and benign conditions.

All programmes are presented in English unless otherwise specified.
