Cancer Epidemiology

The epidemiology of cancer includes the study of factors and agents responsible for cancer. The epidemiology of cancer is the analysis of the distribution, determinants and frequency of cancerous diseases in specific populations.

Experimental epidemiological studies show that associations between risk factors and specific cancers are generally helpful in generating hypotheses about likely interventions that may reduce cancer occurrence or morbidity. Descriptive epidemiology focuses on the trend and abundance of the disease in a given population. Analytical epidemiology deals with the identification of sources and the risk of predisposition associated with the development of a disease. Clinical epidemiology represents screening programs and assesses the impact of blocking strategies on overall outcome.
