Abstract

Cancer screening in urban Senegalese residents is underutilized due to geographical barriers and limited healthcare access. A mixed-methods approach including pre- and post-intervention surveys, qualitative interviews, and data analysis to assess participant engagement and outcomes. Telehealth significantly increased access to cancer screenings by 40% among urban Senegalese residents compared to traditional methods. Telehealth improved screening accessibility by overcoming geographical barriers, leading to higher participation rates in cancer detection. Expand telehealth services and integrate them into standard healthcare protocols for better patient engagement and outcomes. Cancer Screening, Telehealth, Urban Senegalese, Accessibility, Efficacy Treatment effect was estimated with $\text{logit}(p_i)=\beta_0+\beta^\top X_i$, and uncertainty reported using confidence-interval based inference.
