On the occasion of October Pink, the Limoges University Hospital (CHU) is organizing a day dedicated to the fight against breast cancer on Tuesday, October 13, 2026, from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., in the reception hall of Dupuytren 1 Hospital.

The teams of the CHU and their partners are mobilizing for this day of awareness, information, and screening for breast cancer. The public will be able to interact with healthcare professionals involved in the management of this disease, as well as local associations.
Designers will also hold a sale, with proceeds going to the associations Avenirs and AOMR (Association of Medical Oncology and Radiotherapy).
Breast cancer is the most common cancer in women. Early screening is essential, as when detected early, breast cancer can be cured in 9 out of 10 cases.
