Oklahoma Central Cancer Registry is the central database of information on all cancers diagnosed or treated in Oklahoma since January 1, 1997. Oklahoma Statute 63 OS 1-551 requires all healthcare and health service providers to report specific information on every cancer
case diagnosed or treated in Oklahoma. Data sharing agreements with surrounding states are in place to assure the completeness of the information for all Oklahoma residents.
The Oklahoma Central Cancer Registry is also a member of the North American Association
of Central Cancer Registries (NAACCR) and has been awarded gold status (highest level attainable)
for data completeness and quality for the past 5 years. All data on this query site is
considered high quality by both NAACCR and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
This query system of statewide registry data enables researchers, policymakers, and consumers
to obtain incidence for all major cancer sites. In addition, the data contained herein allows
both private and public health agencies and other data consumers to examine Oklahoma's cancer
trends and develop both cancer prevention and cancer control programs that are evidence-based.
The Oklahoma Central Cancer Registry acknowledges and thanks the Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention (CDC) and the National Program of Cancer Registries for its support of the Oklahoma staff
under cooperative agreement # 1 NU58DP007125-01-00. The contents of these webpages are solely the
