DEAR COLLEAGUES & FRIENDS,
On behalf of the European Society of Breast Imaging, we are happy to announce the upcoming EUSOBI Diagnostic and Interventional Breast Ultrasound Course which will take place in Vienna, Austria, from September 16-17, 2021.
Over the course of 2 days, European experts in breast ultrasound will:
- provide up-to-date reviews on the use of breast ultrasound to detect, differentiate and stage benign and malignant breast lesions;
- emphasize the basic principles of interpreting and reporting breast ultrasound examinations;
- deliver interactive case-based US-BI-RADS workshops;
- provide an extended, in-depth review of best practices in breast imaging with ultrasound;
- present hot topics and emerging applications;
- utilise interactive teaching as well as problem-solving case presentation.
- employ workshops to allow hands-on experience of automated 3D Ultrasound, US-guided biopsy, lesion localization and minimal invasive therapy of breast lesions.
The course registration is now open. Of course, your safety is EUSOBI’s first priority and we will strictly follow all decisions and recommendations by local authorities. All registrations that have been moved from the initially planned course in March 2020 will of course remain valid for September 2021.
SAFETY MEASURES (applicable as per September 6)
The Austrian government has put together some safety measures for organising courses and conferences in times of the covid-19 pandemic. We will of course stick to these rules to make a safe performance of this event possible. As per the current information (as per September 6) these measures include:
• Proof to enter the EUSOBI Breast Ultrasound Course 2021: vaccination OR negative molecular biological test (PCR test) for SARS-CoV2 (ATTENTION: test is only valid for 48 hours after sampling)
• Obligation to wear a FFP2 mask (except when sitting in the lecture room)
These rules may be subject to change until September 16 and we will give you an update before the event.
We would like to thank you very much in advance for your patience, understanding and valuable support of our society! We are looking forward to a successful EUSOBI Breast Ultrasound Course from September 16-17, 2021, and would of course be happy to welcome you there.
Yours sincerely,
