title: [Incidence of cancer in Scandinavia].
abstract: The Nordic Cancer Registries have completed a long-term project designed to evaluate developments in cancer up to the year 2010. On the basis of trends hitherto discernible, the development of cancer morbidy and mortality in the Nordic countries was projected. Another aim was to investigate the manner in which the trend of increasing cancer incidence might be modified by preventive measures, early diagnosis and optimised treatment.
