Chapter 1: IntroductionM.P. Curado, H.R. Shin and J. Ferlay
Cancer Incidence in Five Continents (CI5) Volume IX presents incidence data from populations all over the world for which good quality data are available.
BackgroundA detailed questionnaire was requested to be completed by all cancer registries that were able to contribute to Volume IX and also by national registry associations and networks. The registries could delegate data submission to their associations but had to submit their own questionnaires. All instructions for preparing the data were explained in the questionnaire and an email address, [email protected], was expressly created to handle all correspondence relative to the preparation of this volume.
The reference time period for Volume IX was defined to be 1998–2002; in order to allow the Editors to verify some aspects of quality, comparability and completeness for each submission, the contributors were asked to also send data for the years prior to the reference period.
The publicationThe data presented in Volume IX are expanded on by seven introductory chapters, reduced from nine in the previous volume: this Introduction, Techniques of registration; Classification and coding; Histological groups; Comparability and quality of data; Processing of data; and Age standardization and denominators. The evaluation criteria used to analyse the data submitted by the cancer registries were based on Cancer Registration, Principles and Methods (IARC, 1991).
We received data from 406 cancer registry populations (Table 1.1). Data submitted on 106 populations from cancer registries were excluded. Volume IX thus presents cancer incidence data from 300 populations, 225 cancer registries and 60 countries, an increase of 28.6% over Volume VIII.

Registries 313 225
Populations 406 300
Geographical coverage in CI5 Volume IXThe geographical coverage of CI5 Volume IX by continent is shown in Table 1.2 below: Africa has included data from 5 of the 14 countries that submitted data, South and Central America 8 of 11, North America 2 of 2 countries, Asia 15 of 18, Europe 29 of 30 countries and Oceania 4 of 6 countries.
The proportion of cancer registries represented by continent is as follows: Africa 31% (5/16), South and Central America 38% (11/29), North America 93% (54/58), Asia 57% (44/77), Europe 83% (100/120) and Oceania 85% (11/13).
The share of the world population covered in this volume is 11%, distributed as follows: Africa: 8.8 million (1%), South and Central America: 23 million (4%), North America: 258.5 million (80%), Asia: 152.3 million (4%), Europe: 238.8 million (33%) and Oceania: 23 million (73%).

This publication was developed via an interactive relationship among the contributors and the editors mainly through the power of the electronic presentation of data, while retaining the
traditional tables of incidence rates and registry descriptions as in previous editions. The website http://www-dep.iarc.fr/ provides multiple options for analysis of cancer incidence across the world, in order to be beneficial to epidemiologists, oncologists, researchers and cancer policy makers. Acknowledgments: The Editors would like to thank Vincent Benoist and Marilyne Goutagny, who abstracted and tabulated the information from the questionnaires completed by each contributor, and Krittika Guinot, who created the maps� The Editors would also like to thank the directors and registrars from all the cancer registries who submitted their data to this volume for their efforts to produce cancer incidence data and make it available to the world. Their work is the cornerstone of cancer descriptive epidemiology and provides a basis for future cancer research and health policies.
