Comparability and validity of cancer registry data in the north-west of Russia
Russian national cancer figures are assembled from regional registries of very uneven quality, so a national average conceals both real differences in disease and differences in how carefully cases are recorded. It is the reason to read the Herzen institute's annual volumes alongside an independent audit rather than on their own.
