Mongolia to prevent against cancer.

Mongolia to prevent against cancer. The Khan Bank Foundation, the National Center of Oncology, and the Mongolian National Broadcaster will co-organize the national campaign against cancer for the 6th year. The national campaign will be implemented in remote rural areas with higher levels of cancer risk factors, with the aim of conducting preventive check-ups and diagnosing cancer in its early stages. Along with conducting regular activities developed for the campaign, regional trainings will be organized for doctors in neighboring provinces and soums regarding early diagnosis of cancer, chemical treatment options, hospice care, and clinical ultrasounds. The outcomes of the past five years clearly show that the campaign has made concrete contribution to the reduction of terminal cancer diagnoses. Within the campaign, a team of doctors travelled around the country and screened a total of 90,000 individuals for cancer. The team conducted over 400 immediate surgeries in rural areas and organized specialized training for 5,400 doctors and specialists.
