Panelists with expertise in both medicine and psychology provided information on breast cancer and discussed the advantages of early detection and treatment. The speakers included Dr. Amal Hassan Abdul Aziz and Dr. Adnan Ahmadi Azad of Thumbay University Hospital, who explained how this cancer affects both a medical and psychological perspective.
