Objectives: Breast cancer screening consists of batch interpretation of two-view (cranio-caudal CC- and medio-lateral oblique MLO) digital mammography (DM) per breast. The DM-MLO view was substituted by an MLO-digital breast tomosynthesis (DBT) and its synthetic (2D-synthetic mammography (SM)-MLO) view. The performance of this hybrid protocol was evaluated in a one-stop-shop screening visit, providing immediate reading and additional work up.

A growing knowledge highlights the strong benefit of regular physical activity in the management of breast cancer patients, but few studies have considered biological parameters in their outcomes. In the prospective randomised trial after breast cancer treatment completion "PACThe," we determined the effects of physical activity and nutritional intervention on the biological and anthropometric status of patients after one year of follow-up, and clarified the link between biomarkers at allocation and disease-free survival. 113 patients from the population of the "PACThe" study ( = 251) were analysed for biological parameters.

Background: The advantages of adapted physical activity and nutritional education (APANE) on breast cancer prognosis and quality of life (QoL) are well known, but long-term results are lacking.

Methods: A randomised controlled trial testing a 2-week intervention in hydrothermal centres including APANE enrolled 251 patients post-chemotherapy. QoL and weight control were significantly improved at 12 months.
