In spite of all the existing efforts, reasonable cancer therapy is available for only 10-15% of the cancer patients in the world. According to the prevalence of cancer problems in the world, this number could be estimated as not less than 20 million cancer patients in the world. Cancer problems do not only touch patients, but also their families and friends who suffer for them. So, the burden of unreachable reasonable cancer management lies heavily on not less than 80 million persons in the world. This lack is more evident in the fields of radiation, medical oncology, and palliative and supportive care. This tragic situation should not be allowed to continue !.
ICEDOC has been established as an independent committee
and to complement (and not to compete with or to duplicate) the work of
existing organizations, societies, and authorities. The first founding meeting
was held in
- To increase cancer
management facilities in the world.
- To improve the quality of
the existing services
- To decrease the morbidity
and mortality of cancer.
- To promote the activities
of early detection of cancer that should be tailored for each region and
to associate them with more availability of treatment facilities.
- To assist in tailoring
cancer treatment protocols, modalities and departments according to the
specific conditions and the socio-economic factors in each region taking
into-consideration the views of the local health care givers and
community. The final results should lie within the range of acceptable
results. There will be double way benefits for the patients and the
progress of medicine.
- To conduct relevant
researches
Honorary and active membership of the ICEDOC could be presented to all who support, help, or to participate to achieve the noble goals of the ICEDOC. We welcome all cooperation, suggestions and comments.
Finally, we are all aware of the screaming of millions of cancer patients, their relatives and friends. “Please don’t forget us”.
Sincerely, The Board of ICEDOC
