| Cervix Cancer is the second leading cause of death for women world wide. The rates of breast cancer are quickly rising through out the world. In part these dismal statistics are related to the fact that disease in low resource countries is identified in advanced stages when cure is improbable. Cervix and breast cancer are preventable or at least curable when identified earlier. This can happen when screening programs are in place. This compendium provide references to the international agencies and societies involved in dealing with this problem, research conducted on breast and cervical cancer prevention and control in the low resource countries of the Western hemisphere and educational resources available for cancer control planner through to the public. |
