Secondary title: | ǂThe ǂrole of Hospital-based Cancer Registry of the Institute of Oncology Ljubljana |
Secondary abstract: | Cancer registries are crucial in collecting and providing data on the cancer burden at both the population and the regional level. Hospital-based cancer registries are engaged in the collection of information on cancer patients treated in a particular hospital. Their main purpose is to contribute to clinical patient care in terms of efficiency, quality and hospital management. Hospital-Based Cancer Registry of the Institute of Oncology Ljubljana was established at the same time as the population-based Cancer Registry of Republic of Slovenia in 1950 and contributes to the Slovenian Cancer Registry one third of all notifications of cancer. The data collected in the hospital-based register are also valuable for the professional and research work of the Institute. One of the tasks of hospital-based cancer registries is the preparation of annual reports for management and other users. Annually at the Institute of Oncology Ljubljana, we treat more than 6000 new cancer patients. The number of patients increased by 16% in the period 2008-2016. |
