Résumé

Delays in detection and treatment of breast cancer can lead to increased mortality. To date, participation in organized breast cancer screenings (OBCS) has been suboptimal worldwide. The objective of this study was to investigate the factors associated with deferral or non-performance of mammography during the COVID-19 pandemic for women who had previously participated in OBCS.
