A regional implementation of an organised colorectal cancer screening programme did not lead to a higher PFC increase in the screening relevant age group 50-74 years. Nevertheless, changes in the PFC were more pronounced for men and less pronounced for people aged 70-74 than those invited to participate in the screening programme (60-69 years), as compared with the rest of Sweden (without organised colorectal cancer screening).
