| Description | The aim of this article is to inform about newly issued automated web portal focused on population risk analyses related to cancer epidemiology. Portal was built up on very representative database of National Cancer Register (Czech Republic, Ministry of Health Care, standardized collection of cancer data from 1997 - 2005) that provides fully representative long-term trends. Nowadays the database consists of more than 1 200 000 cases stratified according to main risk factors and diagnostic descriptors including TNM classification of tumours. The automated system of on-line analyses offers unique access to cancer regis-tries, demographic and environmental databases. Portal is principally developed as tool increasing the in-formation potential of risk assessment studies. Portal is available at http://www.cba.muni.cz/svod/. |
