Area of Science:

  • Global Health
  • Oncology
  • Pathology

Background:

  • Noncommunicable diseases, particularly cancer, are a growing global health burden.
  • Low- and middle-income countries face significant infrastructure challenges in cancer diagnosis and treatment.
  • Limited resources hinder the establishment of comprehensive cancer care services.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To introduce a framework for the rapid deployment of anatomic pathology services in sub-Saharan Africa.
  • To define essential components for a functional laboratory network supporting full-spectrum cancer care.
  • To identify and address barriers to establishing robust laboratory networks in resource-limited settings.

Main Methods:

  • Development of the "lab-in-a-box" concept by African Strategies for Advancing Pathology.
