Systematic training and technological empowerment: enhancing the quality of cervical and breast cancer screening in low-resource areas of China

In low-resource areas of China, enhancing the quality of cervical and breast cancer screening is essential for effective prevention and control. Systematic training and technological empowerment can strengthen these screening programmes, optimise processes and improve diagnostic accuracy. For cervical cancer screening, it is crucial to employ approved, efficient screening technologies and integrate them with population management platforms to enhance screening and follow-up processes, thereby ensuring comprehensive coverage and effectiveness. Developing targeted training programmes, fostering multiparty collaboration and establishing scientific evaluation mechanisms can further improve the quality and effectiveness of cervical cancer screening, supporting the goal of eliminating cervical cancer by 2030. Similarly, advancements in breast cancer screening require appropriate training and technical support to bolster early detection and intervention capabilities. Overall, comprehensive strategies targeting these two cancers are critical in reducing the disease burden.
