The basis for a scientific aftercare are such characteristics as recurrence and metastasis rates, lethality classified according to age-groups and duration of observation. Comparable data like 5-years-lethality by age-groups in 1968 and 1973 (female patients with cancer of the breast diagnosed in the capital of the G.D.R., Berlin), causes of death, cumulative relative survival rates, excess mortality are of importance for the follow-up intensity directed to this group of patients by the cancer centre, the general-practitioner and the out-patient oncological department. The most important task will still be early diagnosis of malignant tumours, because detection of curable stages will have better results and such patients need less intensive aftercare.
科学随访的依据包括复发率、转移率、按年龄组分类的致死率以及观察期等特征。类似的数据，如1968年和1973年按年龄组划分的5年致死率（民主德国首都柏林诊断出的乳腺癌女性患者）、死因、累积相对生存率、超额死亡率，对于癌症中心、全科医生和门诊肿瘤科室针对该组患者的随访强度至关重要。最重要的任务仍然是恶性肿瘤的早期诊断，因为在可治愈阶段进行检测会有更好的结果，而且这类患者所需的强化随访较少。
