Thông tin chi tiết

Tóm tắt :

The purpose of cancer screening tests is to detect pre-cancer or early-stage cancer in asymptomaticindividuals so that timely diagnosis and early treatment can be offered, where this treatment can leadto better outcomes for some people. The aim of a cancer screening programme is either to reducemortality and morbidity in a population by early detection and early treatment of a cancer (forexample, breast screening) or to reduce the incidence of a cancer by identifying and treating itsprecursors (such as cervical and colorectal screening). This short guide is designed to be a quickreference that contains the important ideas about cancer screening. Readers should refer to otherpublications for comprehensive discussion and detailed guidance on cancer screening programmes. v, 45 p.
