Delay and noncompliance in cancer detection: a behavioral perspective for health planners.

H P Greenwald, S W Becker, M C Nevitt.   

Abstract

Professionals and public alike believe in the benefits of early cancer detection. Yet screening programs have encountered serious problems in engaging their clients to seek prompt medical follow-up. If benefits of early detection are to be achieved, and fear and mistrust overcome, a more reliable connection between screening and treatment must be forged.
