Abstract

Each year there are now more than 30% fewer deaths from breast cancer than there would have been had screening not been initiated. Therapy has improved, but treatment saves lives when breast cancer is found earlier. Analysts who have claimed that excess cancer detection is indicative of overdiagnosis have ignored the fundamentals.
