Cancer registration is important for epidemiology, planning, cancer policy and research. The network of cancer registry across India is widened and a process began in 1960?s.The cancer registration in India is expanded day by day including many Hospital Based Cancer Registries and Population Based Cancer Registries. Projection of cancer incidence is essential for planning cancer control actions, health care and allocation of resources. The incidence or the projection of cancer is made from the cancer registry.The cancer registry is an organization for the systematic collection storage, analysis, interpretation and reporting data on subjects with cancer.The main objective of these registries is to produce statistics on the occurrence and to provide a framework for assessing and controlling the impact of cancer in community. The emphasis will be an epidemiology and public health. The data will be used for obtaining information on burden and patterns of cancer. It can also provide a focus for research into etiology and prevention (primary and secondary) and patient care. The main role of cancer registry is to capturing a clear and complete picture of cancer in India.
