For each cancer site, the natural history of disease progression is reviewed and how the course may be altered by early intervention. Available screening tests are assessed both for their potential benefit and disadvantage. The information presented in this thoughtful review will assist health policy-makers to make decisions on cancer screening. Clinical researchers considering setting up screening studies will be made aware of the pitfalls of evaluation; practitioners and postgraduate students will find a readable introduction to the subject.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 1995-11-08\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Paperback\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e ISBN-10: 9783540199571\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9783540199571\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-1-4471-3044-4\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 235cm x155cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 192\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44358651871372,"sku":"9783540199571","price":99.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9783540199571_ff9ff575-d6c1-4545-b25b-a26ec746d5de.jpg?v=1755111263","url":"https:\/\/fh90cf-fv.myshopify.com\/products\/9783540199571","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
