Abstract
The result of the mass screenings of Cervical Cancer which were made by the Ishikawa Prefectural Office from 1971 to 1975 is presented in this paper, and some comments are added.
1) From 1971 to 1973, 25, 724 women were examined; 447 of them were histologically examined, and as the result, 79 cancers were were detected with cancer detection ratio; 0.31%
2) As the age advances, the (positive smars)/(negative smears) ratio becomes higher.
3) The cancer detection ratio becomes higher with the age fo the subjects.
4) It is important to determine what the ideal age distribution pattern should be for mass screenings, of cervical cancer.
5) To make efficient mass screenings, it is necessary to increase those examinees who have not been examined before.
