What is the affect on mortality rates?

0

As screening increases, more people survive due to early detection, and the mortality rates decline. The mortality rate for breast cancer has decreased since 1988 by 11%. When mammography screening was first introduced, it was estimated that if all women age 50 and older receive breast cancer screening, the mortality rate would decrease by 30%.
