Lately, alternative models are been used to smooth risks (rates) in space-time disease mapping. The more classical models are temporal extensions of the well-known conditional autoregressive (CAR) model (Besag et al., 1991). Spatio-temporal models including penalized splines have been also considered (Ugarte et al., 2010). In this work, we aim at analyzing temporal trends and geographical inequalities of colorectal cancer mortality in the provinces of Spain during the period (1975-2008) by age-groups and gender using alternative models. This particular data set will be used for discussing different features of these models. The interaction between random regions effects and time will be also discussed.
