TLDR
This is the first attempt to determine the national cancer incidence in Korea and this data will be useful to plan for research and national cancer control in Korea.Abstract:
Purpose
The first Korean national population-based cancer registry using nationwide hospital-based recording system and the regional cancer registries provided the source to obtain national cancer incidences for the period 1999~2001.read more

TL;DR: Korean women showed a relatively high prevalence of high-risk HPV and a rather low prevalence of CT, and cross-reaction of HC2 with low- risk HPV types is of some concern, were the test to be used in primary screening.
