Our Focus is Offering the Best Cancer Care and Treatments
The Central Maine Comprehensive Cancer Center is committed to providing high-quality care close to home. In order to offer the best care available, our interdisciplinary team of caregivers continually researches new technologies, meets regularly to discuss case presentations, uses data from the cancer registry to monitor patient outcomes.
Cancer Registry
The Cancer Registry is a database of information about cancer patients. It helps providers and researchers understand what may cause cancer and the most effective ways to prevent and treat it. Hospitals across the country and around the world have joined together to collect and share data about individual cancer cases and what their outcome is.
Central Maine Comprehensive Cancer Center also participates in this registry and reports cancer statistics for our health system. Our Cancer Registry includes a data system that collects, manages and analyzes cancer patient data. Our data is available to all cancer researchers nationwide and internationally.
The data is also used at CMMC to educate medical staff, analyze treatment results, and evaluate the quality of care. The data system is managed by a Certified Tumor Registrar (CTR).
The Registry collects updated information through hospital, provider and patient contact. We ask for our patients’ help in keeping information current. All cancer patient information is treated with confidentiality; cancer data is used without personal identifiers.

Alissa’s Story
Alissa has worked in the Medical Imaging department at Bridgton Hospital since 2002. As part of her responsibilities, she often helps women with their mammograms and works closely with radiologists to secure additional images as needed. In 2014, after her own annual mammogram, Alissa was called back by the radiologist for additional imaging. Following a biopsy, at only 42 years old with two children, Alissa was now a breast cancer patient.
