News - The “Oncoscreening” project starts working! | Inna Foundation

All questions and nuances related to the preparation of the “Oncoscreening” project have been resolved. The Inna Charitable Foundation has signed a cooperation agreement with the CSD laboratory, recently opened in Brovary. The CSD laboratory has been working in Ukraine for many years. Has a large network of offices in many cities of the country. Differs in high quality and reliability of the services provided. And, of course, taking part in such a large-scale charitable project, the management of the laboratory made a partnership contribution – the Inna Foundation will be provided with a significant discount on payment for services. related to screening!

We are starting a unique project to screen such a dangerous disease as cervical cancer. This disease is the fourth most common cancer among women worldwide. WHO estimates that in the absence of additional measures to tackle cervical cancer, the annual number of new cases is expected to rise from 570,000 to 700,000 by 2030, and the annual number of deaths from 311,000 to 400 000. The high mortality rate from cervical cancer is a consequence of many decades of indifference to this problem, experts say. In low- and middle-income countries, the incidence is almost double and the death rate is three times higher than in high-income countries. As you know, almost all cases of cervical cancer are caused by genital infection caused by oncogenic strains of the human papillomavirus (HPV).

Cervical cancer is preventable. And it is curable with early detection and proper treatment. That is why we have chosen to screen for this type of cancer. While the project will be held in pilot mode, the Foundation will provide a survey for several dozen applicants (approximately 100 people). Then we will evaluate the quality of services and their effectiveness. And we will make the necessary decision to expand screening services.

So, the “Oncoscreening” project starts its work! We offer residents of Brovarshchyna to undergo a screening examination for cervical cancer.

Please note that screening is carried out exclusively in the Brovary office of the CSD laboratory by prior agreement with the Inna Foundation. You are checked – we pay!
