*Projection for incidence was performed by multiplying the sex-, age- and site-specific incidence rates by sex- and age-specific population projection. Details of population projection is provided in the external site Population Projections for Japan: 2016 to 2065.
*Projection for mortality was performed by a model using age, calendar year at diagnosis, and their interactions as independent variables. Details are described in external site Japanese Journal of Clinical Oncology 2014, 44: 36-41.
