The National Cancer Data Base: ten years of growth and commitment.
The National Cancer Data Base (NCDB), now 10 years old, was created to provide a resource for assessing patient care and outcomes nationally and to circulate this information to the medical community. Dr. Partridge says the NCDB clearly has succeeded in fulfilling this and other goals and can be expected to continue to be an important source for evaluating patterns of cancer care in the United States.
