Abstract(Please copy/paste the abstract send to the congress) : |
Breast cancer still represents the leading tumor among women and the incidence of the disease is rising all over the world. Conventional Mammography, full-field digital mammography (FFDM), ultrasound, MRI, positron emission tomography (PET), and positron emission mammography (PEM) are currently used modalities for breast cancer screening and diagnosis; however, pathological characterization still plays an essential role for differential diagnosis and for avoiding surgical over-treatment in case of breast lesions with suspicious features. Core needle biopsy (CNB) and fine-needle aspiration (FNA) cytology are useful procedures in diagnosing breast cancer. We reviewed 50 breast cancer patients who had undergone FNA, core biopsy, and also either mastectomy or lumpectomy and compared the sensitivities of these diagnostic methods. Sensitivity for FNA or CNB interpreted as either atypical, suspicious for malignancy or malignant was 95.6% for FNA and 96.1% for core needle biopsy which showed no statistically significant difference (P >0.05). In conclusion, FNAC and CNB represent sensitive methods for the characterization of breast masses. |

Your experiences about the travel processes(Providing ticket, accommodation,...) : |
All the processes went smoothly except that they had mistakenly list my paper as accepted as a poster but I ended up presenting my research orally. I stayed in holiday inn hotel which was not luxurious but quite comfortable. the best point about the hotel was that it was next to the airport which I landed in and had a 24/7 free shuttle available to get to the hotel safely. The conference was held in the same hotel as I stayed and this made things very easy for me. |
|
Please give a briefing of your own observations and outcomes of the congress: : |
Getting to know experts from around the world is a unique experience. We exchanged ideas on how routine procedures of a clinical pathology and molecular lab are performed in our countries and got familiar with different insurance programs covering pathology and molecular lab services. |
