New for 2024: In-Person Workshops
We are elevating the offerings this year with the addition of a 2-hour hands-on workshop segment.
This is meant to not only teach new techniques but also showcase the recent advances in biopsy equipment, biopsy markers, newer machines, localization procedures, and AI. This will launch our conference to a multidisciplinary level, with content relevant to both surgical oncology physicians and breast imaging radiologists.
