Strategy (motivation) for detection of early breast cancer

For successful strategy to increase motivation for mass screening for detection of early breast cancer, three elements are needed: 1) women at risk must be taught the necessity of the examination; 2) they must be made aware of the existence of the facility, which must be made easily accessible; and 3) they must be reassured that the examination is simple, effective, and safe. Mass screening for breast cancer is the only proven method that has the potential to reduce the stationary death rate from the disease. Until true primary prevention is developed, it is necessary to make mass screening ever more efficient, economical, and safe. At the same time, increasing efforts must be made to motivate women to accept such mass screening.
