BREAST – Improving Radiologists’ Ability to Detect Breast Cancer
Cancer is very prevalent in my family. My mum has had breast cancer; she has 5 siblings – 4 out of the 5 got cancer too. It really runs down one side of my family. So, this topic is pretty important to me, especially having two beautiful girls myself.
We do a lot of software projects at SSW; some very large, some a lot smaller, but sometimes it’s the smaller scale projects that have a disproportionate weight on your heart and stick with you as a developer. Some of you may remember my brush with melanoma last year. Luckily for me, the dermatologist opted to have it removed despite not being convinced that it was anything sinister. Diagnostic tools are important.
I’m proud to hear that Australia has some of the best radiologists in the world. The problem is, breast cancer can be hard to spot on scans. Radiologists simply don’t see enough confirmed cases to be effective enough at spotting them.
Keep reading to see how technology is now helping women get a better cancer diagnosis.

Gold Coast, Brisbane Full Stack User Group: Clean Code with Entity Framework Core
Object Relational Mappers like EF Core exist to take the drudgery out of getting your Object-Orientated C# code to talk to a relational database.
Opinions on this vary from "ORMs are the Vietnam of Computer Science" to "If you write data access code, you are stealing from your client".
Like any powerful tool, EF Core can help you a great deal when used carefully, or cause chaos when thrown blindly at your codebase.
This talk covers - An introduction to the primary features of EF Core - How to use EF Core with clean code principles - What's new in EF Core - Techniques to monitor performance and what to do about badly behaved queries.
