How can professionals access cancer registries and databases?
Cancer registries and databases are essential tools for tracking incidence and outcomes. The Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) Program provides a comprehensive database of cancer statistics in the United States. Globally, the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) offers access to the Global Cancer Observatory, which includes data on cancer incidence, mortality, and prevalence worldwide. These resources are invaluable for conducting research and developing public health strategies.
