Breast cancer detection awareness project in Wisconsin: 1987-1988.
In May 1987 and 1988, the American Cancer Society (ACS) sponsored Breast Cancer Detection Awareness (BCDA) programs throughout Wisconsin. These programs were made possible by the cooperative efforts of many ACS volunteers, hospitals, clinics, and physicians. The Wisconsin Radiological Society and the Division of Health were also involved in the planning efforts. In 1987, a total of 10,207 women were screened at 100 facilities, and 75 carcinomas were detected. In 1988, of 8,802 women screened at 102 facilities, 52 carcinomas were detected.
