Practical Applications for Clinical Breast Examination (CBE) and Breast Self-Examination (BSE) in Screening and Early Detection of Breast Cancer.

A stage shift towards early diagnosis appears to have been achieved. This has encouraged the development of similar projects in other middle income developing countries.
