Air pollution and interference waves to block satellite programs have been cited as factors in the rising number of cancer cases in Iran.

Motlagh also reported that there needs to be more equipment for cancer diagnosis as well as prevention programs.

Motlagh also reported a higher incidence of colon cancer in the northern provinces including Gilan, Mazandaran, Eastern Azerbaijan, Tehran and Semnan, adding that sedentary lifestyles and diet could be a contributing factor to prevalence of this kind of cancer in this region.
