Publikation: Bidrag til tidsskrift › Tidsskriftartikel › Forskning
In Denmark, malignant melanoma is among the most rapidly increasing cancer types. Malignant melanoma accounts for the majority of skin cancer-related deaths. Sunshine is the main cause of the increase seen in melanoma incidence. Within Denmark, Bornholm is the area that receives most sunshine. It is therefore relevant to compare incidence data between Denmark and Bornholm.
