Breast Cancer Screening Symposium
Operation Breast Density is having their Breast Cancer Screening Symposium on Saturday March 2, 2024, from 9 am - 12 pm at the MSU Management Education Center located at
811 W. Square Lake Road, Troy, 48098. There is a virtual component offered for this event as well.
This is an educational symposium that provides 3 hours CME credit hours on breast density education, screening high risk breast cancer patients and reviews indications for other imaging modalities for patients with dense breasts. As you may know 45% of women have dense breasts and a mammogram can miss a cancer diagnosis up to 50% of the time in these women. Therefore, it is important that we as clinicians know how to properly screen these high-risk women. Learn how to risk stratify these women and what additional imaging they need to complete their annual breast cancer screening at our symposium. Lectures provided by four Clinicians from Ascension, Karmanos and Mclaren Hospital systems.
This is a FREE event which includes CME credit for physicians, nurse practitioners, nurses and physician assistants as well as food & beverages. There will also be networking opportunities with vendors ranging from medical device companies such as Delphinus (creator of Softvue technology for dense breast screening), health and wellness companies such as Elivate IV Therapy + Wellness, other breast cancer nonprofits like the Pink Fund and other women's health and wellness and apparel vendors such as Kendra Scott Jewelry, Busted Bra Shop, and Wellness One.
Free registration can be found at: https://app.promotix.com/events/details/Breast-Cancer-Screening-Symposium-tickets-2.
All fundraising efforts raised at the symposium go towards paying for supplemental imaging for high-risk women as insurance often will not cover the necessary imaging these women need. Operation Breast Density provides financial assistance to these women.
