Cancer Cases Projected to Surge in India by 2045
A recent study by the Indian Council of Medical Research (ICMR) predicts a significant increase in cancer cases in India, with a projected 12.8% rise by 2025 and a continued surge until 2045. This increase is attributed to longer life expectancies and socioeconomic changes, leading to lifestyle-related cancers. Prostate, lung, colorectal, and oral cancers are most common in men, while breast and cervical cancers dominate among women. The rise highlights the need for enhanced cancer control programs focusing on early detection, lifestyle changes, and healthcare improvements to address the growing public health challenge.
