Cancer is the second cause of mortality in Romania and Europe. Romania has the greatest number of cases in Europe for three cancer forms: lung cancer, cervical cancer and brain cancer. In Romania, every day, 57 people find out they suffer from cancer. The mortality caused by cancer is higher than in the rest of Europe, while there is insufficient activity for prophylaxis and early diagnosis of cancer.
