Proportion of females aged 53 to 70 screened for breast cancer in previous 36 months (12076) Metric type
- Help text
- The proportion of women eligible for screening who have had a test with a recorded result at least once in the previous 36 months. Eligible women is the number of women aged 53 to 70 years resident in the area (determined by postcode of residence) who are eligible for breast screening at a given point in time, excluding those whose recall has been ceased for clinical reasons (e.g. due to previous bilateral mastectomy).
This indicator gives screening coverage by local authority . This is not the same as the indicator based on population registered with primary care organisations which include patients wherever they live. This is likely to result in different England totals depending on selected (registered or resident) population footprint. The indicator excludes women outside the target age range for the screening programme who may self-refer for screening.
England figures have been aggregated from local authority data and exclude women resident in Wales or of unknown local authority
