General description
The German Centre for Cancer Registry Data (Zentrum für Krebsregisterdaten - ZfKD), located at the Robert Koch Institute in Berlin, offers comprehensive cancer statistics for Germany. Through an interactive database query, users can access information regarding incidence, mortality, prevalence, and survival rates for various cancer types.
Operating under the Robert Koch Institute, the ZfKD consolidates data from state cancer registries nationwide. Its primary objective is to furnish scientific research with dependable cancer data for Germany, while also disseminating information on cancer occurrences to interested parties.
The ZfKD team rigorously assesses state datasets for completeness and reliability, conducting cross-country evaluations. Regular publication of results occurs across various formats.
