Bringing Best Practices to Breast Care Professionals Around the World

Our friends from Solis Breast Care & Surgery Centre and Luma Women’s Imaging Centre recently left their mark on breast cancer care at an international level by organising the Singapore Breast Multidisciplinary Conference 2023. The inaugural event successfully reinforced the importance of a multidisciplinary approach to breast cancer diagnoses and treatment.

From 3rd – 5th November, more than 300 surgeons, pathologists, radiologists, oncologists and allied health professionals spent their time collaborating and sharing knowledge at PARKROYAL on Beach Road, Singapore. Attendees from all over the world flew in from Australia, Japan, Taiwan, Thailand, Philippines, Indonesia and Sri Lanka, united in their desire to share and learn best practices for the multidisciplinary management of breast cancer diagnoses and treatments. 

Some of the highlights of the conference included the breast pathology course, with a microscopy workshop that allowed pathologists to review and discuss interesting and complex cases. 

For the radiologists, they had lectures on stereotactic-guided and MRI-guided breast vacuum-assisted biopsies and localisations. They even had the chance to try their hands at these interventions at Luma Women’s Imaging Centre in Paragon. 

As the event drew to a close, the team consisting of faculty speakers and staff from Solis Breast Care & Surgery Centre and Luma Women’s Imaging Centre were all smiles after the end of a successful conference. Congratulations for pulling off a massive event and we hope the next one will be as fruitful!
