Welcome to the California Cancer Registry Data Dictionary

The California Cancer Registry (CCR) Data Dictionary site provides access to all variables collected for research and surveillance purposes. This site offers the option of viewing all variables in the Data Dictionary (Quick Shortcuts section) or a subset of variables based on your area of research interest (Design Your Own Output section). Completeness tables are available for each variable. A completeness table provides a year-by-year assessment of the quality of the data.
