Screening for cancer

In Denmark, we have screening programmes for breast cancer, cervical cancer, and bowel cancer.

These cancers are the most common and cause many deaths every year.

  • Screening for breast cancer is offered to all women between 50 and 69 years. 
  • Screening for cervical cancer is offered to all women between 23 and 64 years
  • Screening for bowel cancer is offered to all citizens between 50 and 74 years.
