Medical students and professionals in Vision College were exposed to a talk on early cancer detection using advanced technologies in ultrasound at the college last August. The talk, organised by Vision College, in collaboration with Siemens Healthcare, revealed technological advancements in ultrasound that aids cancer prognosis and diagnosis.

Dr Dirk André from Munich University Hospital explained several real life case studies to accentuate and highlight these breakthroughs. He believes that there are certainly more boundaries that could be breached in time, which would only benefit the entire medical industry.

While the event was initially limited to 50 participants, the overwhelming response led to approximately 80 participants which included doctors, surgeons, radiologists, sonographers and medical imaging students.

Established in 2003, Vision College provides training on several healthcare programmes - Medical Ultrasonography, Medical Imaging, Nursing, Foundation In Science, and several other programmes. The college is ranked 5-star in College Education, Health and Welfare and International Student Reachness by MyQuest, Ministry of Education, Malaysia.
