TL;DR: The aims of the European Network of Cancer Registries (ENCR) are to improve the quality, comparability and availability of cancer registry data in Europe and this paper presents the most recent available data, with short-term projections to 1995, and a commentary based, where possible, on epidemiological research carried out in France.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: There is clearly scope for large improvements in survival, and hence reductions in cancer mortality, in some countries, through eliminating these differences using existing knowledge and treatment regimes.
