Obstacles to the uptake of breast, cervical, and colorectal cancer screenings: What remains to be achieved by French national programmes?

Sicsic, Jonathan; Franc, Carine - Université Paris-Dauphine (Paris IX) - 2014

Background: In France, equality in access to screening has been one of the main thrusts of public policies implemented between 2009 and 2013 (the national cancer plan). Our aim in this study was to analyse the obstacles to and levers for breast, cervical, and colorectal cancer screening uptake...

Incorporating human behaviour in simulation models of screening for breast cancer

Brailsford, S.C.; Harper, P.R.; Sykes, J. - In: European Journal of Operational Research 219 (2012) 3, pp. 491-507

Simulation modelling is widely used in many industries in order to assess and evaluate alternative options and to test strategies or operating rules which are too complex to be modelled analytically. Simulation software has developed its capability in parallel with the growth in computing power...
