Practitioner's Responsibility In Cancer Detection

I. W. Bean M.D.1

1 Medicine Practice in the Department of General Practice, Medical Arts Clinic, Regina, Saskatchewan.

In a somewhat rambling fashion, I have attempted to outline the practitioner's responsibility in the field of cancer detection and how he can discharge that responsibility. The general rule that I have found most helpful is one that I learned from my former chief, the late Dr. Allan W. Blair: "To be thorough, to be painstaking, to be correct, will bring you no special recognition or praise here. Errors of commission will be looked upon with sympathy and understanding. Errors of omission will not be tolerated." I believe this is our greatest aid in cancer detection.
