西班牙批准把乳腺癌筛查扩大到45至74岁女性：六年内邀请覆盖接近百分之百
西班牙国家卫生系统跨地区委员会10月23日批准一份命令草案，把乳腺癌人群筛查的年龄范围从现行的50至69岁扩大到45至74岁，新增45至49岁与70至74岁两个年龄组。卫生部称，此举与欧洲建议一致。
筛查手段仍为乳腺X线摄影（钼靶），一般间隔为两年；新年龄组在推行初期可先按三年间隔邀请，之后转为两年。
扩大将分阶段实施：命令生效后，各自治区以及休达、梅利利亚须在三年内启动各自项目的调整，并与国家卫生管理研究所（INGESA）及公务员互助机构协调；六年内，新年龄组的受邀覆盖率应接近100%。
卫生部同时说明，本次跨地区委员会还更新了国家卫生系统共同服务组合中的其他内容，包括改进义肢矫形器服务与修订部分营养产品构成。
Spain Approves Extending Breast Cancer Screening to Women Aged 45 to 74
The Interterritorial Council of Spain's National Health System approved on October 23 a draft ministerial order extending population breast cancer screening from the current ages of 50 to 69 to women aged 45 to 74, adding the 45-49 and 70-74 age groups. The Ministry of Health said the move follows European recommendations.
The screening test remains mammography, generally every two years; during the initial rollout, the new age groups may first be invited at three-year intervals before moving to two years.
The extension will be phased in. Once the order enters into force, the autonomous communities and the cities of Ceuta and Melilla, in coordination with the National Institute of Health Management (INGESA) and the civil service mutual funds, must have begun adjusting their programmes within three years, and within six years the invitation coverage of the new age groups should approach 100 percent.
The ministry said the same council session also updated other parts of the National Health System's common services portfolio, including improvements to orthoprosthetic provision and a review of the composition of certain nutritional products.
