EUSOBI 2026 Breast Cancer Cryoablation Workshops

Attending EUSOBI 2026 in Maastricht? Join IceCure for two interactive and informative workshops on breast cancer cryoablation featuring leading experts, Dr. Lucía Graña-López (Lugo, Spain) and Dr. Federica Di Naro (Careggi Hosital, Florence).

These expert-led sessions will explore the clinical role of cryoablation in the future of minimally-invasive local breast cancer treatment and address patient selection, procedural planning, post-cryoablation imaging interpretation, and the evolving future of de-escalated breast cancer care.

Sign up now to reserve your seat. In the registration form, use the drop-down menu to indicate whether you plan to attend Workshop #1, Workshop #2, or both workshops. 

Seating is limited to 40 participants per workshop and will be confirmed on a first come, first served basis.

Workshop #1 – Reading the Freeze:
Practical Imaging Interpretation After Breast Cancer Cryoablation

This practical, case-based workshop will focus on the how to read post-cryoablation images in the breast. Attendees will learn how to recognize expected post-treatment findings, evaluate tissue evolution over time, and identify findings that may require closer assessment. The session will provide practical guidance on post-cryoablation imaging interpretation across ultrasound, mammography, CEM, and MRI.

Key topics include:

  • Expected post-cryoablation imaging findings and appearance of the ablation zone 
  • Differentiating normal post-treatment changes from suspicious or indeterminate findings 
  • Follow-up imaging strategy, reporting considerations, and multidisciplinary communication 
  • Case-based discussion informed by completed, ongoing, and upcoming ProSense® breast cryoablation studies 

Workshop #2 – From Freeze to Future:
Cryoablation as a New Frontier in De-Escalated Breast Cancer Care 

This workshop will explore breast cancer cryoablation as a minimally invasive, image-guided local treatment option within the broader movement toward de-escalated breast cancer care.

The session will introduce ProSense® Cryoablation, review its FDA-authorized indication for selected low-risk patients, and discuss how breast imaging specialists can support patient selection, treatment planning, procedural guidance, and post-procedure follow-up. 

Key topics include:

  • Clinical rationale for treatment de-escalation in biologically low-risk breast cancer and where cryoablation fits within image-guided local treatment options 
  • ProSense® Cryoablation: liquid nitrogen technology, minimally invasive tumor destruction, and FDA-cleared indication for selected patients aged 70 years and older with tumors ≤1.5 cm treated with adjuvant endocrine therapy 
  • Patient and lesion selection, procedural planning, probe placement, ice-ball monitoring, and treatment-margin considerations 
  • Post-cryoablation imaging, follow-up strategy, workflow considerations, and case-based discussion of practical clinical decision points 

About our faculty

Dr. Lucia Graña-López, MD, PhD, is a radiologist specializing in breast and women’s imaging. She is Head of the Breast Unit at University Hospital Lucus Augusti in Lugo, Spain. She is an experienced ProSense® Cryoablation user for malignant and benign breast tumors. Dr. Graña-López has presented clinical data on cryoablation for early-stage breast cancer at EUSOBI.

Dr. Federica Di Naro, MD, is a radiologist specializing in breast imaging at Azienda Ospedaliero-Universitaria Careggi in Florence, Italy. She is a highly experienced ProSense® Cryoablation user. Dr. Di Naro serves as principal investigator of an independent breast cryoablation study evaluating ultrasound-guided cryoablation and contrast-enhanced mammography follow-up in early-stage breast cancer.
