Effectiveness of Cancer Registries
Journal Title: International Journal of Chronic Diseases & Therapy (IJCDT) - Year 2018, Vol 4, Issue 1
Abstract
Cancer is identified as one of the greatest morbidity and mortality causes throughout the world. The purpose of this work is to show the importance and impact of cancer registries on identification and treatment of cancers. Cancer registries are instrumental in identifying distribution of incidence and burden, risk factors, and at risk populations. By understanding its efficiency and cost effectiveness, policy makers, private stakeholders, and health ministries can implement these high quality data collection methods throughout expanding locations.
