Cancer surveillance is conducted through the establishment of cancer registries. These registries systematically collect, store, analyze, and disseminate cancer data. Key components of cancer surveillance include:
Data Collection: Gathering information from hospitals, clinics, laboratories, and death certificates. Data Analysis: Using statistical methods to interpret the data and identify trends. Data Dissemination: Sharing findings with stakeholders, policymakers, and the public through reports, publications, and online platforms.
