Welcome to the Belgian Cancer Registry website!
The Belgian Cancer Registry collects information about all new cancer diagnoses in Belgium and their follow-up. Based on this information it maps out the nature and extent of cancer in Belgium. It regularly bundles this information in a publication. You can find the most recent information under cancer numbers.
The Belgian Cancer Registry also collects all anatomopathological test results as part of the early detection programme for certain cancers (cervical cancer, breast and colon cancer).
