title: [Breast screening in Geneva?].
abstract: Repeated screening-mammography is the best method for an earlier diagnosis of breast cancer in women aged 50 years and more. This diagnostic tool is closely related to the factor "time" and is responsible for the modification of the TNM-groups of the cancers to be treated. An actual project has to consider the local conditions as well as the results of the large randomized trials; special efforts have to be made to ascertain the quality of the screening and its control.
