National Program of Cancer Registries

Opis

In 2001, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) National Program of Cancer Registries (NPCR) funded a pilot project involving two NPCR registries that partnered with two anatomical pathology (AP) laboratories. The intent of the pilot was to evaluate the use of structured data entry for cancer pathology reports for submission to cancer registries. The project included the California Cancer Registry collaborating with C/NET Solutions and the laboratory at the University of California at Irvine. Collaborating with the Ohio Cancer Incidence Surveillance System were the Rocky Mountain Cancer Data Systems (RMCDS) and the laboratory at University Hospitals of Cleveland. Additional participants included Cerner Dynamic Healthcare Technologies (DHT) and the Systematized Nomenclature of Medicine (SNOMED(r)) International, a division of the College of American Pathologists (CAP).
