According to the Institute, “Reporting of cancer cases is compulsory to all physicians working in Estonia who diagnose or treat cancer. Data are submitted to the registry also by forensic pathologists-experts” (3). Cancer patients are followed up to their death or emigration, and the institute frequently compares their data with data from the [[North Estonia Medical Centre]] and [[Tartu University Hospital]].
