Abstract
The following highlights summarize the principle findings of the NCDB, which are presented in more detail in other reports, some of which have been published and others of which are in press or submitted awaiting review. Collectively, these findings present a broad pattern of NCDB assessment of cancer patterns of care. In addition to the resulting journal publications, 1,600 NCDB participating hospitals receive a customized summary of similar patterns of care and outcome at their facility compared with national norms, which is then used for quality assurance purposes.Keywords
