Costs and Effectiveness of Breast Cancer Screening in India

In developing nations, with lower but increasing rates of breast cancer and fewer economic resources than wealthier nations, the cost-effectiveness of breast cancer screening programs is a critical issue. To estimate the costs of potential programs for breast cancer screening in India that were based on either mammography or clinical breast examination, Lamberts Okonkwo et al. (p. 1290) applied a MISCAN (MIcrosimulation SCreening ANalysis) model of breast cancer that was calibrated to data on breast cancer incidence, stage distribution, and mortality in that country. They found that clinical breast examination in women aged 40–60 (whether done . . . [Full Text of this Article]
