Abstract: | This document is the third Annual Report issued by the National Cancer Registry. It was compiled by Dr Miriam Dalmas, Medical Officer in charge of the Registry. In 1991 the Registry was upgraded to cover the whole population of the Maltese Islands. In the same year the Department of Health Information, of which the Cancer Registry forms part, started keeping its own computerised national mortality database. Record linkage between the Cancer Registry and the Mortality Registry has allowed the Department to embark on accurate studies of cancer survival, which are now starting to bear fruit. The formal publication of this report meets one of the Department's principal operational objectives: that of making information on health in Malta more readily available to the general public. |
