The feasibility of mass population screening for breast cancer by clinical examination and x-ray mammography was studied. The results indicate that such a programme could be conducted effectively by non-medical staff and be safe from the dangers of irradiation. The response rate of women invited for screening suggests that such a service is acceptable to the general public. The additional work load produced by screening would not overburden the existing surgical services.
研究了通过临床检查和乳房X线摄影对大量人群进行乳腺癌筛查的可行性。结果表明,这样的项目可以由非医务人员有效地实施,并且免受辐射危害。受邀参加筛查的女性的回应率表明,这样的服务为公众所接受。筛查产生的额外工作量不会使现有的外科服务不堪重负。
