We studied the results of a screening for stomach cancer conducted in Maebashi City from 1998 to 2003. Elderly people, 65 years of age or older, accounted for 50% of the total examinees, and the increase in the number of people 75 years of age or older was remarkable. The male examinees increased more rapidly in number than the female. The rate of individuals required to undergo further examinations increased with age, but the probability of cancer detection rose even higher, and so the positive predictive value became high with age. The probability of early cancer detection was higher in women than in men.<BR>In the future, society will age, and the improvement of early cancer detection methods is crucial.<BR>We expect that early cancer detection will be improved by the new radiography method which uses high-concentration, low-viscosity barium.<BR>We look forward to the introduction of endoscopic submucosal dissection in many hospitals.
