Abstract

The Cancer Registry is a database created for collecting, managing, and storing information about people with cancer. Collaborative research, preventive, and treatment initiatives benefit nations with cancer registries. Several Asian countries have recently made their cancer registries. It is done by a designated Organization, such as the National Cancer Registry Programme (NCRP) in India and National Cancer Registry (CNCR) in China. Both countries decentralized their programs in different parts of their country. Bangladesh’s National Cancer Registry has not yet been established due to a lack of government policy, fund allocation, trained manpower, workforce, awareness, and readiness among health professionals.
