Abstract
The exponentially growing interest in cancer markers (Sell, 1990) requires an organized approach to establish their true practical usefulness for the entire society. This includes medical, social, economical, and humanitarian aspects. Unless powerful statistical methods can be applied for converting cancer marker laboratory data into clinically meaningful answers, the measurements generated may raise more interpretational problems than they solve.
