Thank you very much, Mr. Chair.
During this meeting, which is coming to a close, we talked a lot about the importance of early diagnosis. I think we now agree that for many types of cancer, the key is early diagnosis to try to act as quickly as possible. The witnesses are saying that this is what family doctors do a lot, that is, they try to intervene as soon as possible.
Dr. Wilkinson, you talked about costs in your opening remarks. You said that a mammogram costs about $68, whereas treating breast cancer can cost about $500,000. In terms of efficiency for the system, how much less will earlier intervention ultimately cost the system than treatment at a later stage?
