About this event

There is increasing interest in more risk-based, personalised approaches to population breast cancer screening in Australia. This is driven by a growing body of evidence on breast cancer risk assessment and risk-based management, new imaging technologies, and community awareness about breast cancer risk factors including breast density.

This seminar will provide an overview of the Roadmap for Optimising Screening in Australia (ROSA) project, to achieve evidence-based consensus on the best options for Australian women.

Morning tea, lunch, afternoon tea and complimentary arrival and post-event drinks provided.
