Cancer registries have fundamental roles in cancer surveillance, research, and health services planning, monitoring and evaluation. Many are now assuming a broader role by contributing data for health-service management, alongside data inputs from other registries and administrative data sets. These data are being integrated into de-identified databases using privacy-protecting data linkage practices. Structured pathology reporting is increasing registry access to staging and other prognostic descriptors. Registry directions need to vary, depending on local need, barriers and opportunities. Flexibility and adaptability will be essential to optimize registry contributions to cancer control.
癌症登记处在癌症监测、研究以及卫生服务规划、监测与评估中发挥着基础性作用。如今,许多癌症登记处正发挥更广泛的作用,除了来自其他登记处和行政数据集的数据输入外,还为卫生服务管理提供数据。这些数据正通过保护隐私的数据链接做法被整合到去识别化数据库中。结构化病理报告增加了登记处获取分期及其他预后描述符的机会。登记处的方向需要根据当地需求、障碍和机遇而有所不同。灵活性和适应性对于优化登记处在癌症控制方面的贡献至关重要。
