In short

The CanScreen-ECIS project aims to update the existing European Cancer Information System (ECIS) and improve the quality and coverage of cancer screening programmes in Europe.

Project summary

This European project supports the linking of data provided by the cancer screening programmes into the European Cancer Information System (ECIS) with a view to allowing the permanent monitoring of the screening programmes, including the performance indicators. The action consists in the collection of data from entities in the Member States that are responsible for collecting data on cancer screening. After, we provide this data to ECIS, and develop a piloting of the new ECIS functionality as well as a new separate section to ensure a permanent collection and monitoring of the coverage and performance indicators of population-based cancer screening across the European Union.
