Alternative Screening Methods within the Organised Screening Programme for Cervical Cancer in Finland

Mass Screening Registry, Finnish Cancer Registry, Helsinki, Finland

In Finland the organised screening programme to prevent cervical cancer has been in action since early 1960s. The programme has effectively reduced cervical cancer burden in our country. There are needs still to evaluate potential uses of novel technological alternatives within the programme. A large-scale randomised public health policy trial on primary sole HPV screening is ongoing. This enables random allocation of sophisticated screening tests, and also follow-up of cancer rates after screening episodes, in order to evaluate and plan for optimal screening policies (e.g., testing ages and intervals) in the future. Improving screening attendance in the organised programme is another key to further prevent cervical cancers in our country. Efforts are needed also to reduce overuse of screening services, taking place in spontaneous or opportunistic screening; in order to decrease potential adverse effects and to improve overall cost-effectiveness.
