Cervical Cancer- Prevention, Screening, and Early Treatment in Low Resourced Countries
Eighty percent of the cases of cervical cancer are found in poorly developed countries. There is not adequate screening available to diagnose precancerous lesions and treat them. Many lives can be saved using methods that do not rely highly on technology advanced training.
