Description The Czech organised breast cancer screening programme was initiated in 2002. Collection of data on screening mammography examinations, subsequent dia gnostic procedures, and fi nal dia gnosis is an indispensable part of the programme. Data collection is obligatory for all accredited centres, in accordance with regulations issued by the Czech Ministry of Health. This contribution aims to demonstrate the recent results of quality monitoring of the accredited centres. Quality indicators, whose defi nition complies with international standards, involve the women’s participation, the volume of performed examinations, the accuracy of screening mammography, the use of pre-operative dia gnostics, and the proportion of early detected tumours. Our evaluation documents a continuous improvement in quality of the Czech mammography screening programme, which is thereby in full agreement with international recommendations on quality assurance.
