NORDCAN (Nordic Cancer Statistics Database)
Association of Nordic Cancer Registries (ANCR) and International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC)
NORDCAN is a web-based tool providing cancer statistics from Nordic countries (Denmark, Finland, Iceland, Norway, Sweden, Faroe Islands, and Greenland) including incidence, mortality, survival, and prevalence data spanning up to 70 years, with the earliest records from Denmark's National Cancer Registry established in 1943. Data is updated annually and presented as anonymous, privacy-protected statistics that can be compared across countries, regions, cancer types, and demographic groups.
