The integration of artificial intelligence (AI) in cancer registration holds substantial potential to enhance the efficiency, accuracy, and comprehensiveness of data collection within cancer registries. Despite certain challenges associated with its adoption, the use of AI could significantly improve the quality of cancer data, ultimately advancing public health initiatives and optimizing patient care.
