Locoregional breast cancer therapy: optimizing the quality of life while maintaining oncological control
12 March 2024, 20:00 – 21:00 CET (3:00 – 4:00 PM EDT)
We are thrilled to invite you to our webinar on hot topics in breast cancer treatment. The program will focus on answering three questions that are top-of-mind for breast cancer teams that aim to optimize their patient’s quality of life while ensuring optimal oncologic outcomes:
- Is a radiotherapy boost over the resection zone still needed in all patients?
- How can oncoplastic surgery provide the best cosmetic and oncologic outcomes?
- Can intraoperative imaging aid surgeons in improving surgical success rates?
The webinar will be chaired by Prof. Marian Vanhoeij (UZ Brussel, Belgium), who has brought together a panel of experts in these fields who will provide their points of view. The webinar is intended for all professionals involved in breast cancer treatment.
We look forward to welcoming you online!Program
