HCMT 2061: MODULE 1 (READING
NOTES) SOLVED 100% CORRECT!!
1 of 23
Definition
1. surgery schedules & reports to identify port
placements or seed implants for prostate cancer
2.nuclear medicine treatment logs as a potential source for
patients
treated with radioactive isotopes
3. radiology logs & reports to identify patients diagnosed
by CT scan, MRI, ultrasound, or mammogram in addition to
those who had a CT-guided needle biopsy or stereotactic
biopsy & received no
other care at the facility

-the primary source for cancer casefinding
--> this is b/c the majority of reportable cases are
histologically confirmed
--> most registries actively review every pathology report,
including malignant & nonmalignant reports, to determine
which cases will
potentially be included in the cancer registry; this is b/c the
report may be negative following a re-excision but is still
reportable b/c it was part of the planned first course of
treatment for a malignant
tumor

identified in multiple casefinding sources, a singular case

well as by a radiation oncology treatment summary & the
HIM disease index
