BREAST in Hanoi

In collaboration with Bach Mai hospital and GE Healthcare and with the funding from the Sydney SouthEast Asia Centre under the Research Cluster scheme, Prof. Patrick C Brennan, Dr. Phuong Dung (Yun) Trieu and St-Matt students from the Outreach program run the BREAST study in Hanoi in November 2019 to explore the improvement of Vietnamese radiologists in reading mammograms via BREAST test sets.

There were 35 radiologists participating in the event with each radiologist reading two BREAST test sets (60 cases in each set) and explored their enhancement in cancer detection on mammograms. This study is conducted following the success of two BREAST workshops organized in Hanoi (2016) and Ho Chi Minh city (2018) funded by SSEAC Workshop Grant.
