CHANGES IN THE MANAGEMENT OF DUCTAL CARCINOMA IN SITU BEFORE THE RELEASE OF CLINICAL PRACTICE RECOMMENDATIONS IN AUSTRALIA: THE CASE IN VICTORIA

Background:  This study examines changes in the management of ductal carcinoma in situ between 1995 and 1999 in the Australian State of Victoria. This period was before the release of Australian treatment recommendations.
