Description

The data from the Dutch Cancer Registry (NKR) provide insights into improving care for people with cancer.

The NKR includes information about diagnostics, diagnosis, tumor characteristics and initial treatment, regardless of the treatment location. For an increasing number of cancer types, follow-up data are also available for subsequent treatments. The data is collected by specially trained IKNL data managers in hospitals based on information in the medical file. Since 1989, the database contains data from patients from all over the Netherlands.
