| Description | This chapter aims to introduce the data and methodical background for the analysis of population-based survival of Czech cancer patients, and to document the applicability of internationally-recognised methodical procedures on the data of the Czech National Cancer Registry. The chapter also presents the survival benchmarks for Czech cancer patients which can be readily used for health care assessment, and provides an overview of the survival rates achieved since 1990. In addition, a comparison is provided between the Czech and global data concerning the five-year relative survival rates in selected cancer diagnoses. |
