History of screening by BreastScreen New South Wales of women with invasive breast cancer

ConclusionThe history of BreastScreen NSW participation of 60 % <24 months for women aged 50–69 years at breast-cancer diagnosis is less than the 70 % target for biennial screening coverage at a population level, but this target has never been reached by an Australian jurisdiction. Qualitative research of screening barriers and opportunities may provide a useful guide for reducing barriers across the population.
