The authors reviewed literature data regarding risk factors of cancer in order to produce a software that could identify asymptomatic subjects at 'neoplastic risk' by means of the analysis of the relative risk (RR) of each factors of his/her life-style. More in detail, the relationship between diet and cancer, tobacco use, alcohol consumption, sexual behaviour, parity and other obstetric-gynecologic aspects, medications, occupational hazards, environmental pollution and genetic susceptibility were reviewed. A complex multi-parametric evaluation system was realized to calculate risk of cancers through computerized elaboration. The program operates on anamnestic, objective and instrumental data derived from a clinical data-base.

Abstract
The authors reviewed literature data regarding risk factors of cancer in order to produce a software that could identify asymptomatic subjects at 'neoplastic risk' by means of the analysis of the relative risk (RR) of each factors of his/her life-style. More in detail, the relationship between diet and cancer, tobacco use, alcohol consumption, sexual behaviour, parity and other obstetric-gynecologic aspects, medications, occupational hazards, environmental pollution and genetic susceptibility were reviewed. A complex multi-parametric evaluation system was realized to calculate risk of cancers through computerized elaboration. The program operates on anamnestic, objective and instrumental data derived from a clinical data-base.
