The contribution of the technology and the opportunities that can be use and develop for the betterment on the provision of care in the health care system in Australia.

The present issues that need to be consider and act on upon promoting and using this intervention.

The consequences or conflicts that may somehow foresee to arise in the future.

Government’s role in formulating and implementing the health policies.

In the final analysis of this report, although there are still a lot of disparities in implementing this initiative that needs to be polish and put into further consideration, the advantages in the use of mammogram screening surpasses all of it. Therefore, it is very significant that this technology should be carefully studied, funded and improve by the help of the government for this can bring positive visions and outcomes in unifying the health of all Australian people.

Breast cancer is one of the most common cancer-related deaths in women. Nowadays, it is consider as a major health issue for Australian women. In the previous years, different approaches and technologies were used to help prevent and screen such kind of illness. One of this is the adaptation of mammogram screening – a modern innovation used to detect early signs of breast cancer for treatment purposes. Furthermore, this article mainly focuses about the mammogram screening for Breast cancer. It tackles more about its advantages; present and future down side issues, and most importantly how it has substantially reduce the rates of breast cancer survival.

Mammographic screening for breast cancer offers the opportunity to change the prognosis of the disease through early detection at a preclinical and localised phase; this becomes one of its greatest strengths. In like manners, the modern approach also prevents the occurrence of node progression before it reaches its advance stage. Several reviews were also documented to provide evidences on the decrease in mortality rates of breast cancers through its application; hence efficacy and effectiveness of the procedure were clearly proven.

In spite of the many benefits brought by the mammogram screening, there are still few factors that hinders such service these includes referrals from the clinicians which are very weak. Most of the practitioners and health workers show limited act of recommendation to the community therefore the patients have lack of knowledge about the technology. Moreover, the cost of the service also causes it to remain suboptimal because most of the community especially those in the remote areas often have low employment status hence producing low income. Aside from this, attitude and individual beliefs is also well considered as a barrier in promoting this kind of medical examination.

The health care system in Australia is very serious in aiming quality care and treatment among Australian people having detected with breast cancer by using the mammographic screening. A lot of evidence was shown that this service was very beneficial enough to the community. Therefore, the government of Australia supported and promoted this initiative by granting enough fund in putting up breast screen programs. Several organisations were established and worked all at once to achieve the best possible treatments and care for women diagnosed with breast cancer. Some of these formed associations are Breast Cancer Network Australia (BCNA), Sydney-based National Breast Cancer Foundation (NBCF), Australian Cancer Network (ACN), Cancer Voices Australia, and Breast screen Australia. Most of the projects of each sector include worksite wide campaigns and onsite screenings (mobile mammography van). Health policies were also established to help the public regardless of the socio economic status avail the clinical preventive services. The recent studies state that there is a continuity of forming health maintenance organizations and still counting for more in the coming years. The existence mammogram screening procedure also faces technology updates and advancement, a follow through technique using magnetic resonance imaging is now being applied for better delivery of health care services.

Even with a good quality mammographic screening program, problems related to accuracy of the initiative may consider as a threat in the provided service. There is still a chance of incorrect interpretation of results because its capacity is not solely the machine but also human resources or operators. Shortages of qualified radiologists and mammographic technologists have been also reported in the past years as what stated in different reviews hence, affect the expansion of the mammogram screening in the whole country. In addition, some articles viewed in the media or other reports also examine the effect of radiation that an individual might get from the mammographic machine. These studies informing that there is a greater risk of radiation exposure hinders high cancer-detection rate for women attending for screening and can be extremely ineffective in encouraging women to participate in mammographic screening. 

To conclude, despite the several dilemmas and foreseeable threats that this public health initiative is encountering, the present results of most of the reviews shows that the benefit of mammography screening in reducing the rate of breast cancer and diagnosing the condition are consistently positive.This health service continues to provide good health benefits in every woman. Overall, expanding the mammographic screening may become more effective and improve only if right actions are to be taken to consideration such as education, implementation of health policies for breast cancer illness and thorough participation of all health workers in recommending the assessment service.

In particular this topic will help assist every health workers and women to increase awareness about mammogram screening. This can become very useful to enhance the implementation of the procedure as well as to further promote encouragement to all women. However, their limitations and indications should be well understood and addressed before they are used to prevent and minimize misinterpretations. It is also very important, based on emerging evidence, to re-evaluate the usefulness of such initiatives to ensure that clear results are propagated and that women are not given confusing health advice.
