Insights into current innovations and future potential of tomosynthesis were on display in Winnipeg earlier this month. The CAR hosted the Breast Imaging Forum with a featured presentation by breast health expert and CAR member Dr. Raman Verma.
At the downtown Fairmont Winnipeg hotel, Dr. Verma presented Digital Breast Tomosynthesis: Current Trends and Future Directions where he articulated the current uses, benefits and challenges, and future directions of tomosynthesis for breast cancer screening. His findings outlined the advantages of tomosynthesis and its barriers to implementation and interpretation.
The event was held in partnership with the Manitoba Association of Radiologists (MAR) and supported by long-time CAR partner, Hologic. MAR President Dr. Gregoire says he is thrilled with the subject matter, turnout, and execution of the evening.
“I think this is a perfect event. The CAR really brought in a great speaker on a specialty topic, bringing new knowledge to Manitoba and contributing to patient care.”
