The American Cancer Society, Philadelphia Division, has completed a comprehensive profile of breast cancer and mammography in Philadelphia and Montgomery Counties. The profile consists of three segments: (1) data on incidence of breast cancer and trends in stage at diagnosis; (2) estimates of breast cancer screening practices based on surveys of the population; and (3) results from a survey of mammography providers assessing the region's capacity for and access to mammography. The profile demonstrated that the Philadelphia Division is already close to achieving the national American Cancer Society's goals for breast cancer detection for the year 2000 for the percent of women screened and percent of cancers diagnosed in early stages. New and more ambitious goals for the Division must be set. Although capacity for mammography is high, outreach programs by mammography providers represent only 1% to 2% of all mammograms performed. The profile has been the cornerstone of new programmatic initiatives for the Division.
美国癌症协会费城分部完成了一项关于费城和蒙哥马利县乳腺癌及乳房X光检查的全面概况报告。该概况报告由三个部分组成：（1）乳腺癌发病率及诊断时分期趋势的数据；（2）基于人群调查的乳腺癌筛查实践估计；（3）对乳房X光检查提供者的一项调查结果，评估该地区乳房X光检查的能力及可及性。该概况报告表明，就接受筛查的女性百分比和早期诊断出的癌症百分比而言，费城分部已接近实现美国癌症协会2000年乳腺癌检测的全国目标。必须为该分部设定新的、更具雄心的目标。尽管乳房X光检查能力很高，但乳房X光检查提供者的外展项目仅占所有乳房X光检查的1%至2%。该概况报告一直是该分部新计划举措的基石。
