Back to all collections
1 Expired ICR
Summary
CDC's National Program of Cancer Registries (NPCR) collects data on new cancer cases (including the type, extent, and location of the cancer), the type of initial treatment, and outcomes. Citing the need for national cancer incidence data for local, state, and regional health planning, the US Congress established the National Program of Cancer Registries (NPCR) in 1992 by enacting the Cancer Registries Amendment Act. This law authorized CDC to provide funding and technical assistance to statewide, population-based cancer registries and established CDC's national cancer surveillance system.
