Introduction

 The Office of Cancer Registry is a department for executing a hospital-based cancer registry.

Our team and what we do

 Diagnostic cases registered in 2016 in the hospital cancer registry (the first visit of cancer patients diagnosed from January to December in the National Cancer Center Hospital East <NCCHE>) were 6,116 (of which, an initial treatment conducted in our hospital: 4,580 cases; in our hospital diagnosis only: 196 cases; after an initial treatment in other hospitals: 737 cases; and diagnosis and treatment in other hospitals <excluding a second opinion> : 603 cases). The number of new registrations shows that the >number of female patients has been consistently less over time than male patients due to irregular situations according to each department (Table 1).

 The results of a hospital-based cancer registry have been transmitted to each department by a server through a nosocomial network within the hospital information system.
