2 La Sociedad Internacional de Senología (SIS) tiene, tal y como figura en sus Estatutos, el propósito de reunir a las Sociedades Científicas, Asociaciones y Grupos de todo el mundo, cuyo objetivo es la promoción de conocimiento en Biología y Medicina, con la intención de colaborar en la prevención, diagnóstico, tratamiento e investigación de las enfermedades de la mama. Desde 1976 en que fue fundada, ha desarrollado una continua actividad muy vinculada a la formación de los profesionales que se dedican a esta patología, tanto benigna como maligna. La Sociedad Española de Senología y Patología Mamaria (SESPM) fue creada en 1980, tiene en la actualidad más de mil miembros, es uno de los componentes más activos de la SIS y comparte los mismos objetivos. Dispone de página web y de una revista científica que es su órgano de expresión y donde se publican muchos de los resultados de la investigación clínica y básica nacional. En este sentido ambas Sociedades desarrollan Cursos de Formación, Symposiums, elaboración de Consensos para los diferentes especialistas que las integran y colaboran en diferentes publicaciones sobre la salud mamaria y su patología. Una de las actividades más significativas es la realización de Congresos, en los que se concentra la máxima información disponible hasta ese momento, sobre los últimos avances en Senología. Todos los aspectos que abarca esta especialidad están incluidos en los mismos, lo que permite una concurrencia de criterios que posibilita su abordaje multidisciplinar. La SIS ( ha realizado Congresos en Shanghai, Zagreb, Houston, Boston y otras grandes ciudades del mundo y la SESPM ( durante treinta años en diferentes ciudades españolas. El próximo Congreso será en Valencia del 20 al 22 de Octubre de 2010 y reúne a las dos Sociedades, lo que supone una gran oportunidad de adquisición y puesta al día de los últimos avances científicos. Al mismo se espera una asistencia de más de mil quinientos congresistas y muestra de lo que será el contenido de este Congreso es la relación de los grandes tópicos que se expresan a continuación.

The Spanish Society of Senology and Breast Disease (SESPM), founded in 1980, has nowadays a membership of nearly one thousand affiliates. It is one of the most active members of SIS and it shares the same objectives. It has a web site and a scientific journal which are its way of expression. Many results from national clinic and basic research are published there. In this sense both Societies develop Training Courses, Symposiums, and Establishment of Consensus for the different specialists that participate in those institutions, and collaborate in different publications about breast health and its pathology. One of the most significant activities is the performance of Congresses, where the newest information and the last advances in Senology, are presented in a multidisciplinary approach. SIS ( has performed Congresses in Shangai, Zagreb, Houston, Boston and other important cities of the world, and SESPM ( in different Spanish cities during the last thirty years.
