Which of the following is NOT a standard-setter for central registries?

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) is primarily involved in public health and disease prevention rather than specifically functioning as a standard-setter for central cancer registries. While the CDC does play a significant role in cancer surveillance—particularly through programs that support data collection and use in public health—it does not have the same focus on setting standards for the operational aspects of cancer registries as the other organizations listed.

On the other hand, the American College of Surgeons/Commission on Cancer (ACoS/CoC), the World Health Organization (WHO), and the North American Association of Central Cancer Registries (NAACCR) are recognized for their roles in establishing standards, guidelines, and protocols for cancer registration. They provide the necessary frameworks that ensure the accuracy, consistency, and comparability of cancer data collected by central registries, which is essential for effective cancer control and epidemiological research.
