Registry of experimental cancers of the National Cancer Institute.
This report describes the organization and functions of the Registry of Experimental Cancers and gives the chronology of events that led to its establishment. Currently 21,500 accessions have been coded; the vast majority are spontaneous and induced cancers, chiefly of rodents, and also a wide variety of nonneoplastic diseases. Accessions are accepted from contributors working in laboratories in this country and abroad. The material is available for study by responsible scientists, and a limited number of study sets is available for loan on request.
