Synopsis

Well-organized screening programmes for cervical cancer are vital to reduce the incidence and mortality from the disease. With early detection, treatment is relatively inexpensive and almost always successful. Unfortunately, in many countries screening programmes have had little or no effect on mortality because resources have been used inappropriately, without achieving adequate coverage of the women at risk. The guidelines in this book are intended for planners and managers responsible for initiating or expanding such screening services.
