10th SGH Breast Pathology Course 2019

A New Blue – Refreshing reviews of breast diseases

This year, we celebrate the 10th Anniversary of the Breast Pathology Course. Both common and recurrent diagnostic challenges in breast pathology practice were discussed, with emphasis on updates from the WHO 2019 Breast Tumour Classification. The course was held on 8-10 November 2019 at Academia, Singapore General Hospital. Over 100 pathologists and professionals from various countries joined us at our two and a half day breast pathology fiesta.

We were honoured to have Dr Ian Ellis and Dr Emad Rakha from Nottingham City Hospital, Dr Soon Lee from Western Sydney University, and Dr Gary Tse from Chinese University of Hong Kong as our invited faculty.

It was a delightful opportunity for all involved in diagnostic breast pathology and who manage women with breast diseases to gather together for collegial discussions and friendly networking.
