Cancer burden, its pattern and survival in Muzaffarpur: findings from first population-based cancer registry of Bihar state, India
The population-based cancer registry has successfully generated good-quality data, which can be utilised to plan cancer control programs, enhance the infrastructure for cancer care and facilitate etiological research in this population. Given the poor survival of leading sites in Muzaffarpur, emphasis must be laid on strengthening effective cancer control strategies for these cancers.Due to several challenges faced by the registry, we have noted underreporting. In the coming years, due to improvements in the infrastructure and raising awareness about the use of registry data in planning cancer care services, we are expecting an improvement in cancer registration.
