H Sept. 10 II would take all the nation'! doc tors, dolnt nothing else. Just to check everyone each year for can- Such checkups would find almost all cancers, and find them early enough when most could be cured. But our doctor wouldn't have tune to treat anyone for cancer or any thing else. This Is the dilema of cancer de tection as presented to CO national expert by the American Cancer society. The experts are attending a three-day conference to determine the most effective methods of finding cancer early and surely. 2300 MO Victims It Is estimated that 22.000.000 Americans now alive will die of cancer unless present detection methods are improved or new treatments for cancer customed. The biggest need now is for some simple test to spot cancer early, even In hidden, hard-to-find sites. This conference opening today will discuss the value of many proposed or possible methods of doing this. Right now detection centers can not be anything more than part of the answer of finding cancer early, society officials said. A thorough examination of one per son takes about an hour's time. Cancer authorities say that to play safa every person should have a checkup once a year. Men and women over 45 should have two a year. Not Enough Doctors But twice-a-year checkups for everyone would take the full work ing day of 195.000 doctors. The nation has about 180.000 practicing physicians. There are about 240 cancer de tection centers now. the society re ported. Most are booked up weeks or months in advance. Of all the people who come, about . 1 per cent are found to have can cer. About 10 per cent have con ditions that might turn into can cer and 57 per cent are found to have other diseases or troubles and are referred to their own physicians for treatment of these disorders.
