DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Approximately 1,300 Cancer Registrars from hospital based, central, and national cancer registries throughout the United States will attend the 34th Annual Educational Conference of the National Cancer Registrars Association (NCRA) in Minneapolis, MN, from April 28 to May 1, 2008. The NCRA Conference is the largest educational program for Cancer Registrars in the world. The NCRA Conference will provide a forum for Cancer Registrars to learn of changes in standards that effect national cancer data collection. Cancer Registrars will receive guidance on the latest technological changes in cancer diagnosis and treatment and the correct, consistent manner to record this data. Topics to be discussed include Multiple Primary & Histology Coding, Collaborative Staging, New Coding Rules, Changes in Coding Rules, FORDS and Informatics. Cancer Registrars will also improve their management and administrative skills, knowledge of medical sciences, database management, and data retrieval and analysis. The conference will also provide opportunities for central Registrars and hospital Registrars to network on ways to improve the accuracy and timeliness of cancer data. Without the NCRA Conference, Cancer Registrars would not have access to state of the art data collection techniques and methods. As a result, the ultimate quality of cancer data would not be as high. This would impact the usefulness of information collected and published by the National Cancer Institute's Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) Program and the quality of research conducted on that data. NCRA is the only national professional society exclusively representing the individuals who identify, abstract, classify and code cases of cancer that occur throughout the United States. NCRA also administers the Certified Tumor Registrars (CTR) credential.

描述（由申请人提供）：来自美国各地医院、中心和国家癌症登记处的约1,300名癌症登记员将参加2008年4月28日至5月1日在明尼苏达州明尼阿波利斯市举行的第34届国家癌症登记员协会（NCRA）年度教育会议。NCRA会议是世界上最大的癌症登记员教育计划。NCRA会议将为癌症登记员提供一个论坛，以了解影响国家癌症数据收集的标准变化。癌症登记员将获得有关癌症诊断和治疗的最新技术变化以及正确，一致的记录这些数据的方式的指导。将讨论的主题包括多个主要和组织学编码，协作分期，新的编码规则，编码规则的变化，FORDS和信息学。癌症登记处还将提高其管理和行政技能、医学知识、数据库管理以及数据检索和分析。该会议还将为中央登记员和医院登记员提供机会，就提高癌症数据准确性和及时性的方法进行联网。如果没有NCRA会议，癌症登记员将无法获得最先进的数据收集技术和方法。因此，癌症数据的最终质量不会那么高。这将影响国家癌症研究所监测、流行病学和最终结果（SEER）计划收集和发布的信息的有用性以及对这些数据进行研究的质量。 NCRA是唯一的全国性专业协会，专门代表在美国各地发生的癌症病例的识别，抽象，分类和编码的个人。NCRA还管理认证肿瘤登记员（CTR）证书。
