The results will be assessed in a meeting in Riga with country experts (LV, DK, IT, SP, SI, UA, CY) to inform development of a training programme and to prepare a manuscript submitted for publication in Y2.
11.7.2. Train the Trainers: in Y1-Y2, future Latvian trainers (radiologists) will participate in courses in DK and IT to prepare for training others.
11.7.3. Mammography training, including hands-on training and theoretical teaching, and advanced technologies (AI and MRI) will be part of the programme.
