The European Cancer Information System (ECIS) permits the exploration of geographical patterns and temporal trends of incidence, mortality and survival data submitted by about 150 European population-based cancer registries, for the major cancer sites. The database feeding the ECIS application is dynamic, and is updated as new data become available.
