Evaluation of the efficacy of the Australian mammographic screening program

澳大利亚乳房筛查项目采用诸如参与、小型癌症检测和间隔癌症率等临时措施来监测该方案对死亡率的影响。以维多利亚乳房筛查项目为例，我们将评估该项目对接受筛查的妇女死亡率的直接影响，解决澳大利亚癌症协会的优先事项，即“改善筛查项目的结果，确保患者能够得到适当的识别和治疗，并确保筛查服务有效”。

BreastScreen Australia uses interim measures such as participation, small cancer detection and interval cancer rates to monitor the impact of the program on mortality. Using BreastScreen Victoria as a case study, we will estimate the direct impact of the program on mortality for screened women, addressing Cancer Australia's priority of 'Improving screening program outcomes to ensure that patients can be identified and treated appropriately and ensuring that screening services are effective'.
