TL;DR: Key elements for improving cancer surveillance in the region are outlined, including 1) involvement of local stakeholders and experts, 2) integration of cancer registries into existing surveillance systems, 3) improvement in data availability and quality, 4) enhanced communication and dissemination, and 5) better linkages between cancer Registries and cancer planning and cancer research.

TL;DR: An update of a global standard for cancer survival comparisons entitled the World Cancer Patient Population (WCPP), constructed from the current global age distributions of cancer patients, is proposed.

TL;DR: The contribution of medical IR to the cancer burden is small, and the benefits largely outweigh its harms, however, some of these IR‐associated cancer cases may be preventable through dose optimization of and enhanced justification for diagnostic examinations.

TL;DR: This study demonstrated that PreS mutations, C1653T, T1753V, and A1762T/G1764A, were associated with an increased risk of HCC.

TL;DR: The elucidation of the prostate cancer mortality trends is hindered by an inability to tease out the potential effects of early treatment from the more general impact of improved and more active treatment, and it is likely that both sets of intervention have contributed to the decline in prostate cancer deaths in Norway.
