Screening for cancer is an important focus of cancer control. Yet
screening, as it involves administering a test to large segments of
the population deemed to be at risk for the disease of interest, is
potentially a major consumer of scarce health care resources. In
addition, the benefits sought from cancer screening, particularly
reduction in mortality from the disease, are not always realized,
either for biological or organizational reasons. Thus, the paradigm
that early detection must always be beneficial', taught to health
care professionals, and publicized widely through the media to the
public, has been challenged in the last two decades for a number of
cancer sites. It is the purpose of Advances in Cancer Screening to
determine the extent to which the requirements for the introduction
of population-based screening programs have been met, as a result
of extensive research on screening during the last two decades,
with a major concentration on findings from the recent decade.
