Abstract
Exposure of people to indoor ultraviolet (UV) radiation has vastly increased in the past one or two decades, mainly due to increased recreational exposure and partly as a result of therapy for skin disease. This trend will result in an increased incidence of skin cancer, but the magnitude of the increase is speculative at present because of a lack of information about the extent and nature of the recreational UV exposure.
