Breast Cancer Management

Screening programs, better treatments and a general increase in awareness have resulted in declining death rates from breast cancer over the past two decades. However, in developed countries, the disease remains the second leading cause of cancer death in women after lung cancer. The chance of developing invasive breast cancer at some time in a woman’s life is approximately 1 in 8, and the chance that breast cancer will be responsible for a woman’s death is about 1 in 35.

Effective management of this relatively common disease can therefore have a significant impact on survival at the population level, and have a profound effect on lives of those directly affected by the disease and their loved ones.
