Fewer breast and colorectal cancer diagnoses due to the COVID-19 crisis in the Netherlands Fewer breast and colorectal cancer diagnoses have been made in the Netherlands due to the COVID-19 crisis this spring. The decline in the number of diagnoses was more abundant in age groups invited to national population screening programmes, as compared to other age groups. More specifically, there was a drop of approximately one-third in breast cancer diagnoses (including its precursor) among 50-74-year-old women and approximately one-fifth in colorectal cancer diagnoses among 55-75-year-old men and women. These are the age groups that are invited to national population screening programmes in the Netherlands. Avinash Dinmohamed, Sabine Siesling, and coauthors described these findings in the Journal of Hematology & Oncology based on data from the Netherlands Cancer Registry (NCR) that relies on pathological cancer notifications via the Nationwide Histopathology and Cytopathology Data Network and Archive (PALGA). iknl.nl/en/news/fewer-breast-and-colorectal-cancer-diagnoses-due-t Laatst gewijzigd op: 6 november 2020

Symposium: The Netherlands Cancer Registry in Europe Last November 30th the Netherlands Comprehensive Cancer Organisation hosted the online symposium of the Netherlands Cancer Registry. The symposium focused on how to improve cancer care and prevention with insights from cancer registries. Cancer registries are the fuel for Europe’s Beating Cancer plan. The registries provide insights to improve oncological care and prevention. The Netherlands Cancer Registry (NCR) is the national registration since 1989, maintained by the Netherlands Comprehensive Cancer Organisation (IKNL). The main goal is to reduce the impact of cancer, from the personal to the societal level. Together with care professionals, researchers, patients, and policy makers IKNL translates data into valuable insights. What lies ahead in the upcoming years and how can the cancer registries help to guide the way?

Breast cancer follow-up can be less intensive, tailored to individual risk Doctoral research by Annemieke Witteveen at the University of Twente has shown that the number of follow-up visits for women after breast cancer treatment in the Netherlands could be reduced by about 9,000 visits per year. The follow-up could be offered based on the to the risk of recurrence, so that women with a low risk possible would need to revisit the hospital for a mammogram less frequently. Personalized follow-up reduces the burden on patients, care providers and possible the care budget. iknl.nl/en/news/breast-cancer-follow-up-can-be-less-intensive Laatst gewijzigd op: 18 november 2018
English translation Dutch Cancer Atlas available With the launch of the Dutch Cancer Atlas by the Netherlands Comprehensive Cancer Organisation (IKNL) in January 2023, anyone can gain insight into the regional impact of cancer in the Netherlands. Now, the Dutch Cancer Atlas is also available in English; you can switch to English by clicking on the ‘change language’ button (with the flag) within the atlas itself. The interactive online atlas shows geographical patterns in cancer diagnoses, based on where people lived when they were diagnosed. IKNL analyzed these patterns for the 24 most common cancers in the Netherlands and for all of those cancers combined. Geographical variation can be observed for certain cancers, while for others, there is little to no variation. For all cancers combined, there is minimal geographical variation in the Netherlands. iknl.nl/en/news/english-translation-dutch-cancer-atlas-available
Meer samenwerking nodig bij analyses van berichten in online communities De verwachting is dat patiënten met kanker (en hun naasten) in de toekomst steeds meer gebruik gaan maken van online communities op internet. Goede inhoudsanalyse van online geplaatste berichten kan inzicht geven in de zorgen van patiënten. Deze kennis kan vervolgens worden ingezet om de zorg voor patiënten met kanker te verbeteren. Om de resultaten van inhoudsanalyses te verbeteren, dienen volgens Mies van Eenbergen (IKNL) en collega’s de geautomatiseerde methoden voor analyse verder te worden verbeterd via interdisciplinaire samenwerking. iknl.nl/nieuws/2018/meer-samenwerking-nodig-bij-analyses-van-berichten
NKR Online biedt artsen inzicht in actuele trends oncologische zorg Medisch specialisten en andere bevoegde zorgverleners kunnen via NKR Online permanent toegang krijgen tot geaggregeerde data uit de Nederlandse Kankerregistratie (NKR). IKNL wil met NKR Online de toepasbaarheid en toegankelijkheid van deze data vergroten. Het uiteindelijk doel is om artsen een gedetailleerder inzicht te geven in de geleverde zorg, zowel in het eigen ziekenhuis als in vergelijking met andere ziekenhuizen. Op deze wijze wil IKNL een bijdrage leveren aan de discussie over mogelijkheden voor verdere verbetering van de oncologische zorg in Nederland.

Decline in cancer diagnoses due to corona crisis of international interest Cancer care has dramatically changed as a result of the measures taken during the COVID-19 pandemic: many patients have not been going to their GPs, or putting it off, and have been referred to the hospital later. Consequently, a quarter fewer cases of cancer have been diagnosed for several weeks, as found by the Netherlands Cancer Registry based on initial diagnoses in the PALGA pathology database. Dr. Avinash Dinmohamed of the Netherlands Comprehensive Cancer Organisation (IKNL in Dutch) and prof. Sabine Siesling of IKNL and the University of Twente and colleagues report this decline in diagnoses in the highly regarded scientific journal Lancet Oncology. iknl.nl/en/news/decline-in-cancer-diagnoses-due-to-corona-cris-(1) Laatst gewijzigd op: 11 mei 2020
