Welcome to the Texas Cancer Registry

The Texas Cancer Registry (TCR) operates in a two-tier system consisting of a central office and six regional registries. Approximately 140,000 reports of cancer are received annually from approximately 450 health facilities located throughout the state.

We strive to:

• Collect cancer data and maintain a quality statewide population-based cancer registry with complete, timely and accurate data.

• Maintain recognition as a nationally certified cancer registry, and

• Meet the data needs of Texas healthcare practitioners, cancer researchers, health planners, the public and other state and national entities.
