Speaking at the opening of the workshop, Dr. Bui Van Chinh - CEO of Mammocare Vietnam - emphasized: "We wish to not only create a prestigious facility with modern medical equipment and a team of leading experts in the field of breast cancer diagnosis and treatment. But also create an ecosystem of connection - training - sharing clinical and paraclinical experiences between treatment lines".
At the workshop, experts also shared a lot of information related to this field. Specifically, Doctor CKI Dao Thuy Linh - Director of Mammocare Hanoi Breast Pathology Diagnosis Center - shared about 3D breast X-ray technology (Tomosynthesis): "This technology allows "cross-sectional viewing" with thin slices of only 1mm, helping to observe breast lesions more clearly and accurately and helping to detect early small potential lesions that 2D X-rays can miss, especially in women with dense breast tissue - thereby supporting more accurate diagnosis and significantly reducing unnecessary biopsies."
