The Upper Gastrointestinal Cancer Registry (UGICR) is a clinical quality registry that monitors the quality of care provided to Australians diagnosed with upper gastrointestinal cancers.
The UGICR was established in 2015 and is managed by the Cancer Research Program, within the School of Public Health and Preventive Medicine at Monash University. The School has extensive experience in the establishment and management of clinical registries and is considered a centre of excellence in clinical registry science.
The primary liver module of the UGICR aims to identify unwarranted variation in treatment and outcomes for people with newly diagnosed cancer arising from the liver, and provide timely risk-adjusted benchmarked reports of quality of care to participating hospitals.
