INVITATION TO MANOSMED COURSE OF
JUNE 2011
Dear
colleague and
friend,
In 2010, the University of Montpellier Faculty of Medicine decided
to create the MANOSMED DIU (Diplôme
Interuniversitaire de
Mastologie)
offered to physicians and students who register to MANOSMED
courses
taking
place in different Mediterranean countries. The candidate is asked
to register to four courses and to pass successfully the
written exams which follow immediately the courses.
Each course is a 3-day event
(≈ 25 hours of didactic lectures, seminars and case discussion),
which means that, for a candidate to receive the DIU diploma, a
total amount of 100 teaching hours is required.
The first course included in the new MANOSMEDI DIU was the last
MANOSMED meeting in Geneva, Switzerland, in October 2010. The next
course will be in Beirut, Lebanon, on June 8 to 10, 2011.
MANOSMED Executive Committee decided in its last meeting that the
different courses of MANOSMED will cover different areas in the art
and science of Senology. There will be
sessions on Benign Diseases of the Breast, Early Breast Cancer,
Advanced Breast Cancer and Exploration of the Breast Diseases. The
candidate will be asked to assist to four courses covering these
four areas, in order to fulfill all his educational objectives.
The Lebanese course will be dedicated to the BENIGN DISEASES AND
CONDITIONS OF THE BREAST. This will be covered by ten sessions,
of 90 minutes each, and two seminars of Radiology and Pathology.
Each lecture (of a total of 60 communications) is restricted to 12
minutes, and followed by a 3-minute discussion or clarification.
The session moderators will plan the session and the discussion. All
teaching lecturers are asked to limit their interventions to the
exact title of their lectures and to give precise and up to date
information. They are allowed a total number of 30 slides maximum.
The final written exam will cover all the given lectures and will be
comprehensive and interactive. A certificate of success will be
given to those who pass this exam, while those who participate to
the course, do not wish to pass the exam or do not succeed will
receive a certificate of attendance.
The registration fees for this course are US$ 150.
The president of MANOSMED is professor
Stephanos Zervoudis, whom e-mail

The Lebanese Course Director is professor Négib
Geahchan. He may be contacted at the
