Description
Several initiatives have been undertaken over the past decade to encourage breast cancer screening and follow-up. In spite of these efforts data reveal that many women do not receive the recommended breast cancer screening. Studies have been published in the scientific literature that explored barriers faced by women relative to breast cancer screening. Yet few reports have been published of efforts undertaken to delimit the characteristics of women who have and women who have not been screened.
