The first population-based cancer registry (PBCR) in Japan was started in 1951 in Miyagi Prefecture by Professor Mitsuo Segi (Nishino et al., 2008; Okamoto, 2008), who was famous for Segi’s World Population. It is one of the oldest registries in Asia. Subsequently, the number of other prefectures organizing PBCRs increased slowly but steadily in Japan. The ‘Cancer Control Act’, established in 2006, required prefectural governments to provide cancer control planning every 5 years on the basis of an assessment of PBCR data. In 2012, the Tokyo Metropolitan Government and Miyazaki Prefecture were the last to start a registry, and now all 47 prefectures nationwide are maintaining a PBCR, resulting in 100% coverage of the population (Fig. 1). Several prefectural governments have achieved high accuracy in the PBCR and have published the data in Cancer incidence in five continents. Vol. X in 2013 (Forman et al., 2013).
