A consensus is a high quality discussion where members share the same fundamentals.
Our intention is to share the fundamentals discussed and collated as a group to be put into practice by medical professionals.

Improving the Quality of Life as well as Breast Cancer treatment is the principal of this consensus.

Participants will see the great deal of consideration created to enrich the quality of the convention to be held at international standards. We endeavor to acknowledge the in depth quality of discussion created to maintain international standards.

The collaboration and sequencing of different types of disciplines, Surgery, Radiation therapy (radiotherapy), Pathological diagnosis during individual clinical practice, indicates the importance of creating unification between methodologies.
The construction of the guidelines and analyzed content throughout discussions will enrich and educate all participants.

The logo that represents Kyoto Breast Cancer Consensus Conference was created by Ms Hirono Takeda. The design is an inspiration of one of the 3 types of a Japanese Garden 'Karensansui'* which is an eminent symbol of Kyoto.

A 'Karensansui' is also known as a 'dry landscaped garden'. This unique type of garden is often associated with temples that practice Zen Buddhism.
The main elements of this type of garden are the carefully arranged rocks and sand.
The rocks signify the Islands of Japan and the sand that are raked in circular designs signify the surrounding sea. Unlike any other garden, a 'karensansui' garden must be viewed from a single seated position to witness the hidden beauty.
The most popular Rock Gardens within Japan are both located in Kyoto, Ryoanji and Daitokuji.
