An organ-based lung cancer registry is currently maintained by the Japan Joint Committee of Lung Cancer Registry; this registry contributes to the development of lung cancer treatments and provides TNM classification data. In Japan, the overall 5-year survival rate has improved over time to 52% in 2004; the corresponding rates for each pathologic stage have also improved. Previously, separate registries were maintained for surgical and non-biased cases, whereas a prospective registry for non-surgical cases was added in 2012, and a follow-up examination of those data will be conducted in 2016. In addition, a registry of surgical cases from 2010 will be constructed in 2016. The information provided by these registries should better reveal the status of lung cancer patients in Japan.
日本肺癌登记联合委员会目前维护着一个基于器官的肺癌登记系统；该登记系统有助于肺癌治疗的发展，并提供TNM分类数据。在日本，总体5年生存率随时间推移有所提高，2004年达到了52%；各病理阶段的相应生存率也有所提高。以前，手术病例和非偏倚病例分别有登记系统，而2012年增加了非手术病例的前瞻性登记系统，2016年将对这些数据进行随访检查。此外，2016年将构建2010年以来手术病例的登记系统。这些登记系统提供的信息应能更好地揭示日本肺癌患者的状况。
