由于风险、遗传和人口因素方面的人口异质性，各州的癌症发病率存在显着差异。基于人群的癌症登记对于监测癌症趋势和控制至关重要。疾病控制与预防中心和北美中央癌症登记协会通过国家癌症登记计划，正在帮助州登记处在全国范围内生成更多、更好的数据。国家癌症登记处计划支持在 45 个州、3 个地区和哥伦比亚特区加强 36 个登记处并创建 13 个新登记处，提供完整性、及时性和质量的国家标准；财政支持；用户必须意识到影响癌症登记数据收集和解释的各种问题，例如多种癌症诊断、重复报告、报告延迟、种族/民族错误分类以及癌症发病率估计中的陷阱。对这些问题的关注以及对癌症监测现有数据的大量使用将使新兴的基于人口的国家癌症登记网络获得最大的社会效益。
Cancer incidence varies markedly among states because of population heterogeneity regarding risk, genetic, and demographic factors. Population-based cancer registries are essential to monitoring cancer trends and control.The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and the North American Association of Central Cancer Registries, through the National Program of Cancer Registries, are helping state registries generate more and better data nationwide. The National Program of Cancer Registries has supported the enhancement of 36 registries and the creation of 13 new registries in 45 states, 3 territories, and the District of Columbia, providing national standards For completeness, timeliness, and quality; financial support; and technical assistance.Users must be aware of diverse issues that influence collection and interpretation of cancer registry data, such as multiple cancer diagnoses, duplicate reports, reporting delays, misclassification of race/ethnicity, and pitfalls in estimations of cancer incidence rates. Attention to these issues and intense use of the available data for cancer surveillance will enable maximum societal benefit from the emerging network of population-based state cancer registries.
