PATTERNS OF CANCER CARE ACTIVITY

Patterns Of Cancer Care is an expansion of Hospital Based Cancer Registry activity where detailed information on clinical stage, Medical History, Life Style of patient, details of various treatment modalities and follow up is captured. It is helpful to obtain stage and treatment based survival and thus, improve the cancer care. This is being done for Head & Neck, Breast, Female Gynecological Cancers and Hematopoietic Cancers . This activity is also expanded to other TMC Centres of HBCH Sangrur, HBCH Varanasi, HBCH & RC Visakhapatnam since 2022.
