Cimpaign against cancer is not only the duty of the medical professional but also the respon• sibility of the society. The activities of the Sardjito Teaching Hospital Cancer Team. "Kucala" Cancer Society, county hospitals, health centres and physicians in private practice are presented.
It is clear that the role of the Cancer Team of the Medical Faculty/the SardjitO Teaching Hospital, "Kucala" Cancer Society and medical professionals are very important in the detection of cancer.
