Brief description Breast cancer screening is an important part of Australia’s focus on promoting good health. There is, however, increasing confusion about how screening should be offered and some concern about the potential harms of screening. I will analyse the development of breast screening in Australia with a particular focus on ethics, will empirically study current screening practices, and make recommendations about how we should progress in future to ensure that the breast screening program is as ethically sound as possible.
