Breast Cancer in the Third Millennium.
Management of breast cancer is entering a phase of dramatic changes based on screening, more sophisticated therapy, and the development of "high technology" solutions through research. Appreciation of basic principles of biological behavior and therapy need current emphasis, however. By 2015 the American Cancer Society goals of 50% reduction in mortality and 25% reduction in incidence should be met and probably exceeded in breast cancer.
