Breast Cancer Surveillance Consortium

The Breast Cancer Surveillance Consortium (BCSC) is a research initiative that monitors and evaluates breast cancer screening practices across the United States. Its goal is to improve the early detection of breast cancer and understand the effectiveness of various screening methods, such as mammograms. The BCSC collects data from diverse healthcare settings and analyzes it to identify trends, outcomes, and potential disparities in breast cancer care. By doing so, it helps guide recommendations for screening and informs healthcare providers and patients about the best practices to detect breast cancer effectively.
