The DCP3 evaluation of cancer will indicate where cancer treatment  is  ineffective  and  wasteful,  and  offer  alternative  cancer  care packages that are cost-effective and suited to low-resource settings. Main messages from the volume include:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eQuality matters in all aspects of cancer treatment and palliation.\n\u003cbr\u003eCancer registries that track incidence, mortality, and survival, paired with systems to capture causes of death are important to understanding the national cancer burden and the effect of interventions over  time.\n\u003cbr\u003eEffective  interventions  exist  at  a  range  of  prices.  Adopting \"resource appropriate\" measures which allow the most effective treatment for  the  greatest  number  of  people  will  be  advantageous to countries.\n\u003cbr\u003ePrioritizing resources toward early stage and curable cancers is likely to have the greatest health impact in low income settings.\n\u003cbr\u003eResearch prioritization is no longer just a global responsibility.Providing cancer treatment requires adequate  numbers  of  trained healthcare  professionals  and  infrastructure beyond  what  is  available  in  most  LMICs,  especially  low  income  countries. Careful patient monitoring is a requirement of good quality cancer care and this often involves laboratory tests in addition to clinical examination. Even if financing were immediately available to build or expand a cancer control system, reaching capacity will take many years.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"World Bank Publications","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52566190424375,"sku":"00000_00000_00000_00000","price":189.63,"currency_code":"MYR","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/kinokuniya.com.my\/products\/9781464803499","provider":"Books Kinokuniya Malaysia","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
