[Principles of improvement in the early diagnosis of malignant neoformations].

Early diagnosis of the most frequently--occurring cancers cannot be improved unless integrated approach to the problem is used. This should include application on a wider scale of regular medical check-ups in population older than 40 years with more extensive but justified use of modern laboratory and instrumental methods and computer--based follow-up programs.

[A system of automated screening (used for factory personnel)].

The paper discusses automated screening procedures for detection of precancerous and tumor lesions in gastrointestinal organs in factory and office workers. These procedures include application of computers and a classifying matrix (a table of syndromes) in the processing of data obtained by means of questionnaires. Automated screening method provides a rationale for selection of subjects who should undergo further instrumental examination. Its application makes the work of medical staff at the initial stage of mass screening unnecessary. It also provides for standardization of procedures of screening for those who should be further examined for precancerous and tumor lesions in the esophagus, stomach, colon and rectum.

[Use of a computer for selecting persons to undergo cytological study in prophylactic stomatological cancer examinations].

5,320 workers of various professions in Leningrad were involved in a computerized primary screening for further detailed oncological and stomatological examination. On the basis of computer data, 55% of those involved in the questionnaire survey became candidates for such examination. Curettage was performed in cases of pathological changes in the mucosa of lip and oral cavity. Various diseases of the lip, oral cavity and throat (precancerous lesions--3.7, cancer--0.17%) were detected in 22.6%. No precancerous lesions or cancer were identified in the control group of 2,321 subjects. The results point to the effectiveness of computer and cytological examination application in mass oncostomatological screenings.

[Questionnaire method in conducting prophylactic oncological examinations of the population of a rural locality].

The authors describe the method of conducting mass prophylactic oncological examinations by means of questionnaires at the first stage, which was developed at the N. N. Petrov Research Institute of Oncology of the USSR Ministry of Health. Questionnaires were aimed at the recognition of somatic pretumor and tumor lesions of the main localizations and the increase of oncological vigilance of general practitioners. The method has been tested on 11386 inhabitants of rural district of Leningrad and Novgorod Provinces. As a result of mass prophylactic oncological examinations 738 different pathologies were revealed (in 6.6% of all questionnaires), pretumor lesions making 2.05% malignant neoplasms--0.06%. The use of the questionnaire method in conducting prophylactic examinations made it possible: to enhance their medical efficacy, to reduce the number of individuals subject to medical control, to employ instrumental-laboratory tests on more proper grounds, and on the basis of a questionnaire to make a registry of the primary account of persons undergoing prophylactic examinations.
