This document discusses cancer statistics and prevention in India. It notes that over 11 million new cancer cases are diagnosed annually in India, with over 7 million deaths, and only 1/3 of cases are detected early. The most common cancers in males are lung, mouth, prostate, and tongue cancers, while the most common in females are breast, cervix, ovary, and uterus cancers. Early detection through screening can significantly improve survival rates for many cancers like breast and cervical cancers. Lifestyle changes like quitting smoking and increased screening can help prevent and detect cancers earlier.
