Events

Join Stanford Medicine faculty for a discussion of advances in breast cancer management. Learn about screening best practices, breast-preserving treatments, intraoperative radiation therapy (IORT), reconstructive techniques like the biological breast implant structured fat-augmented omental free flap for thin patients, and surgical approaches to preserve nipple sensation and lymphatic function. Come away with a deeper understanding of the latest imaging and surgical techniques to help your patients achieve their best oncologic and reconstructive outcomes.

A recording of this virtual event is available. The program is not available for CME credit.
