The National Cancer Database (NCDB) is a comprehensive database that collects and analyzes information about cancer cases in the United States. It is managed by the American College of Surgeons and includes data from thousands of hospitals. The NCDB helps researchers, healthcare providers, and policymakers understand trends in cancer diagnosis, treatment, and outcomes. By compiling this information, it aims to improve cancer care and support efforts in public health, research, and quality improvement. Ultimately, it serves as a valuable resource for enhancing our understanding of cancer and optimizing patient care.
