Cancer Awareness, Prevention and Control: A UICC handbook for South Asia

The health problems and the available health-care infrastructure in the region are a direct reflection of this situation. While the urban conurbations boast the most modern and sophisticated levels of health care, rural areas lack even basic facilities.

This UICC Handbook for South Asia focuses on the current cancer scenario in the region and discusses strategies to meet the challenges of the future.
