摘要:: Routine breast cancer screening for women 50 years of age and older can reduce mortality from breast cancer by 30% to 35%. Regular Papanicolaou tests can decrease mortality from cervical cancer dramatically, and skin cancer screening could decrease deaths from melanoma. Adherence to recommended screening procedures for breast, cervical, and skin cancer screening increases the potential to lower the risk of death and disability from these diseases. The National Cancer Institute's goals include increasing the proportion of women who get regular mammograms to 80%, and similar goals have been issued for Pap tests. Yet, most women still are not being screened for breast or cervical cancer on a regular basis, and most people do not have regular skin checks for cancer.
