FiledAugust 17th, 2018The overall aim of the Australian & New Zealand Thyroid Cancer Registry (ANZTCR) is to improve quality of care for patients with thyroid cancer. This will be completed through the collection and analysis of data on key clinical quality indicators, to assess hospital performance, identify trends and gaps in service provision, so that clinical improvements can be made, where necessary. Hospital-led practice changes can improve patient outcomes, this is an important initiative, as incidence of thyroid cancer is rapidly increasing Australia, and is now the seventh commonest cancer in females.
