Throughout history, the circle has been a symbol of continuity, unity and renewal. It represents the balance between what we were, what we are, and what we aspire to build.

It reminds us that every ending is also a new beginning.

At the Portuguese Society of Senology (SPS), the circle reflects our mission: to unite knowledge, experience and dedication around a common purpose — improving care for people affected by breast disease.

It is in this spirit that the Portuguese Society of Senology once again brings together, over two days of scientific exchange, specialists and professionals dedicated to the diagnosis, study, research and treatment of breast diseases, with a particular focus on breast cancer. This will be a space for dialogue and reflection, where shared experiences, scientific discussion and innovation come together.

Each presentation, debate and contribution strengthens the network of commitment that unites us as a community. At SPS26, we renew our collective responsibility to continue evolving, questioning, innovating and providing better care.

We look forward to welcoming you and making this meeting another milestone of scientific excellence and collaboration, strengthening the circle that connects us — professionals, patients and families — in a shared purpose: to enhance the quality of care, promote scientific innovation and improve the lives of all those affected by breast disease.

Join us on 15 and 16 October 2026 at the Montebelo Mosteiro de Alcobaça Historic Hotel, Alcobaça.

SPS26: The Circle Grows. The Commitment Continues.
