BreastCheck Screening Programme and Improving Outcomes for Breast Cancer: Discussion
Mr. Martin O'Sullivan:
There is a multidisciplinary team under the NCCP consisting of surgeons, radiologists, nurses, administrative staff, patient representatives and so on looking at this issue. As Professor Flanagan said, it is a moving target at times with new data coming out. A health technology assessment in 2013 made some recommendations. Algorithms have been made as to how we categorise these patients so we can categorise them as moderate risk, high risk-----
