| Abstract: | This report tells the story of the
10-year service history of
BreastScreenNT – the early days, achievements and challenges along
the way and where the program is now. It includes facts and figures about the NT population, women’s participation in screening and program outcomes. It tells
women’s personal stories about being screened and recalled for assessment, about being diagnosed with breast cancer and about working in the program or in association with
it over those 10 years. BreastScreenNT provides a free breast screening service to asymptomatic women at five sites throughout the NT, and screens more than 4000 women each year. Service is provided from first mammogram to the point of breast cancer diagnosis and referral for treatment. |
