9.Screening of gastric cancer.
Korean Journal of Medicine 2010;79(3):219-223
Gastric cancer is the most common malignancy and the second leading cause of cancer-related death in Korea. The proportion of early gastric cancer among surgically treated patients with gastric cancer has been increasing (47.4% in 2004). Gastric cancer detected in early stage can be cured by endoscopic resection or less invasive surgical treatment and the subsequent prognosis is excellent. National cancer screening program for gastric cancer has been available for several years. Efforts to evaluate the efficacy of our screening strategy should be made in terms of mortality reduction and cost-effectiveness.

10.Evidence-based National Cancer Screening program of Korea.
Journal of the Korean Medical Association 2011;54(10):1028-1035
Cancer is the leading cause of death in Korea. Therefore cancer control is one of the most important health issues. Cancer screening is the most promising strategy for controlling cancer. The National Cancer Screening Program started in 2002 in Korea. The goal of the program is to reduce the mortality or incidence rate of the cancer or both. To be effective, the evidence-based National Cancer Screening program should be implemented. For the evidence-based program, related indices were recommended for each step. When adopting a new cancer screening program, the predicted benefit and harm should be analysed, and when a decision is made to adopt the program, a pilot study for feasibility should be implemented. After implementing the community-based screening program, several types of the evaluation for the effectiveness of the program ought to be performed. The indices for each step were listed and discussed. And several conditions suggested for performing evidence-based national cancer screening program in Korea were discussed. Randomized clinical trials to compare the efficacy between the screening tools are recommended. And the study to evaluate the harm from the screening programs should be performed. To achieve the goal of the National Cancer Screening Program, evidence-based national cancer screening program should be performed.
