Abstract:
The National Cancer Programme of the German Federal Administration aims to assess the present status of the national fight against cancer in Germany. Experts in their field have analysed the present target-performance comparison in different working groups dealing with topics from cancer prevention to follow-up and have developed recommendations as to how improvements in the various fields of cancer care may be achieved and mainly how these imrpovements may be implemented in day-to-day cancer care. The working group "Advancement of Colon Cancer Screening, Early Detection and Prevention" proposes the establishment of regulatory proposals for a nationwide, population-based, postal invitational process and, according to Pilot-Projects in Bavaria and Baden-Wuerttemberg, to evaluate the essential recommendations in data protection, logistics, documentation and financing. There are already several programmes in preparation--for example, the Saarland Offensive, based on the results of the KolosSal-Study.
