Postgraduate training in breast surgery.
Dramatic changes have taken place in the field of breast surgery within the past ten years. Much of the change in practice is due to the advent of less invasive surgical procedures and increased technology such as the evolution of sentinel node biopsies. Many surgeons choose to undergo additional postgraduate training to gain an increased proficiency in the diagnosis and surgical treatment of benign and malignant disorders of the breast.
