Nev. Rev. Stat. § 457.010
The effective diagnosis, care, treatment and cure of persons suffering from cancer is affected with the public interest. Vital statistics indicate that approximately 16 percent of the annual total deaths in the United States result from one or another of the forms of cancer. It is established that accurate and early diagnosis of many forms of cancer, followed by prompt application of methods of treatment which are scientifically proven, either materially reduces the likelihood of death from cancer or may materially prolong the useful life of individuals suffering therefrom. It is, therefore, in the interest of members of the public that they be afforded full and accurate knowledge of the facilities and methods used for the diagnosis, treatment and cure of cancer which are available in this state and, to that end, that there be provided means for testing and investigating cancer devices, drugs, compounds and other agents, and that the members of the public be informed of facts for their protection from misrepresentation in such matters.
