Welcome

On behalf of Basavatarakam Indo

American Cancer Hospital & Research

Institute, I wish our chief guest, Padmashri

Dr. Ananda Shankar Jayant; Chairman,Shri. Nandamuri Balakrishna; Members of

the board, distinguished guests, media,

colleagues & friends a warm welcome anda very good morning.


2/28

Welcome Breast cancer is the second most frequent

cancer among women with an estimated

incidence of 23 out of every 100 new

cancer cases diagnosed.

It is now one of the most common cancers

both in the developed as well as

developing regions of the world.


3/28

Welcome Though incidence is high in developed

countries, mortality due to breast cancer is

coming down and part of that success is

due to the awareness created by the

World Breast Cancer Awareness Monthprogram.


4/28

Welcome Since the program began in October 1985,

mammography rates have more than

doubled for women aged 50 years and

older and deaths have declined.

There are now about 25 lakhs breast

cancer survivors in United States alone.


5/28

Welcome But the situation is quite opposite in

developing countries like India, where 46

out of every 100 newly diagnosed breast

cancer patients do not live till next year,

whereas in western countries it is only 27out of 100 patients.

The cause for this difference is lack of

awareness about the disease, fear ofbeing diagnosed with cancer, even if

aware; lack of access to screening as well

as quality, timely & affordable cancer care.


6/28

Welcome Basavatarakam Indo American Cancer

Hospital & Research Institute, the wish of

late Smt. Basavatarakam, wife of late Shri.

reach.


7/28

Welcome Since its inception the hospital has

conducted several hundreds of screening

programs as well as strived to spread

awareness about cancer among people.

Cancer Awarness Month, Basavatarakam
