Documentary research carried out in 2009 aims to document the regulatory framework and existing programs for the early detection of breast cancer in Latin America and the Caribbean in order to establish the most important challenges for the containment of the epidemic in the region. The governments of the region have developed diverse efforts and initiatives to confront the rise in mortality due to said cause, including early detection, treatment and research strategies. Despite advances in the early detection of breast cancer, the challenge remains to link efforts to ensure continuity of care (diagnostic confirmation, treatment and monitoring) in order to achieve higher efficiency, effectiveness and benefits for women with this disease.
2009年开展的文献研究旨在记录拉丁美洲和加勒比地区乳腺癌早期检测的监管框架和现有项目，以便确定该地区遏制这一流行病的最重要挑战。该地区各国政府已做出各种努力并采取举措应对因上述原因导致的死亡率上升问题，包括早期检测、治疗和研究战略。尽管在乳腺癌早期检测方面取得了进展，但挑战仍然存在，即要将各项工作联系起来，确保连续护理（诊断确认、治疗和监测），以便为患这种疾病的妇女实现更高的效率、效果和益处。
