🍀BOOBS 2026 intra-operative decision-making in breast surgery
Breast surgery is evolving rapidly. Techniques are becoming more advanced and procedures more complex. As a result, intra-operative decision-making plays an increasingly critical role in both oncologic safety and reconstructive success.
Choices made during the operation can directly influence outcomes, complications and recovery.
This is exactly the context in which the Brussels Onco & Oncoplastic Breast Surgery Conference (BOOBS) takes place on 5–6 February 2026 in Brussels.
Several surgeons shared their experiences with fluorescence imaging not only during surgery, but also in diagnostics.
Conference bringing oncoplastic surgical complexity together
BOOBS brings together breast surgeons and plastic surgeons to discuss current challenges in oncoplastic breast surgery and reconstruction. The programme centres on real-world clinical situations where decisions made during surgery have a direct impact on outcomes and complications.
Key topics include:
- Extreme oncoplastic surgery
- Free flap reconstruction and complication management
- Sequelae of breast-conservative surgery
- Hereditary breast cancer
- Robotic microsurgery
- The future of oncology and surgery
Together, these themes reflect a field that is moving towards greater precision and closer interdisciplinary collaboration.
Intra-operative insight matters more than ever
As procedures become more complex, surgeons are increasingly required to assess tissue quality, perfusion and risk in real time.Â
Discussions around complication management and advanced reconstruction underline a shared reality: better outcomes start with better insight at the moment decisions are made.
At Mobula, we work closely with surgical teams on innovation, training and implementation in daily practice. Supporting BOOBS aligns with how we engage with the field: by staying close to the questions surgeons face in the operating room.
