BIEDX Ultrasound Breast Intervention Course 2026

Course Description:

The BIEDX Ultrasound Hands-on Breast Intervention Course is a comprehensive, skills-based training program designed to provide in-depth practical exposure to ultrasound-guided breast interventions. The course aims to bridge the gap between theory and clinical practice by combining focused didactic sessions with extensive supervised hands-on training. Participants will gain a thorough understanding of lesion characterisation, appropriate case selection, procedural planning, and the technical nuances of image-guided breast interventions.

The curriculum covers core interventional techniques including ultrasound-guided core needle biopsy, vacuum-assisted biopsy principles, needle placement strategies, and post-procedure care. Special emphasis is placed on optimising imaging technique, maintaining procedural accuracy, minimising complications, and adhering to quality and safety standards. Faculty will share real-world tips, troubleshooting strategies, and workflow integration approaches drawn from high-volume breast centres.

Hands-on sessions form the cornerstone of the course, with small group training and a high faculty-to-participant ratio to ensure individual guidance and skill refinement. Participants will work directly with ultrasound equipment and intervention models, allowing them to develop confidence, precision, and consistency in performing procedures. By the end of the course, attendees will be better equipped to incorporate ultrasound-guided breast interventions into routine clinical practice, improving diagnostic accuracy and patient care outcomes.
