KBCCC Internatinal Convention 2014

Welcome Message

We would very much like to welcome you to the Kyoto Breast Cancer Consensus Conference 2014 International Convention. We ask you to participate freely and contribute to the open discussions during this three day event.

With this event we hope to continue to create a consensus between breast oncology experts that is vital for the local management of primary breast cancer patients as well as the development of new algorithm forms of breast cancer treatment. It is especially the local management that is an issue within primary breast cancer treatment and it is this issue that we aim to discuss in great detail with your assistance. Creating a consensus among oncology professionals may lead to new treatments giving a sense of hope, brighter future and enhanced quality of life for primary breast cancer patients.

We have chosen the theme for this conference very carefully to reflect the heartfelt nature of what we fundamentally wish to achieve through the consensus obtained during this conference; moving toward individualized breast cancer care. With this noble goal in mind internationally renowned experts will speak and hold panel discussions.

We would like humbly thank the medical professionals who have spared some of their valuable time to take part in the KBCCC 2014 International Convention. We would also like to thank all the organizations who have generously given their support to this event. This consensus conference would not have been possible without them.

Let us finish by inviting you to enjoy the myriad delights of Kyoto, the ancient capital of Japan, during your stay. We hope you will have a rewarding experience at the KBCCC 2014 International Convention and enjoy the mixture of ancient and modern culture in Kyoto.
