STATISTICAL FEATURES OF BREAST CANCER INCIDENCE IN THE OMSK REGION.

: Statistical patterns of breast cancer were studied in the Omsk Region in order to optimize early diagnosis and improve the effectiveness of treatment. It was found that the proportion of breast cancer patients in stage I in all age groups was 22. 9%, which was identical with that in the majority of regions of Russia (15 26%) and was close to the average population indices (18. 3%). For patients with disease of stage IV it should be marked the most significant differences in the smaller side compared with average indices for Russia for patients of older age group (17. 4% vs. 40. 6%). It was noted that in the age group up to 40 years there were revealed later stages of breast cancer, so necessary adjustments to screening program based on young patients were required. Due to limitations of mammographic examination of young patients the developments of alternative screening programs for this age group are actual.
