What the NCI says about cervical cancer prevention
NCI Division of Cancer Prevention shared a post by Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, adding:
“Did you know?
The goal of screening for cervical cancer is to find precancerous cervical cell changes and treat them to prevent cervical cancer from developing.
Read about what the National Cancer Institute (NCI) says about cervical cancer prevention and find the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s resources on cervical cancer screening.”
Quoting Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s post:
“Healthcare Providers: 60% of cervical cancers occur among those who have never been screened or have not been screened as recommended. Talk to your patients about cervical cancer screening options.”
