SLORA
SLORA (SLOvenia and cancer - RAk) is a portal that provides access to cancer data in Slovenia and to international sources for cross-country comparisons. It brings together key indicators in one place, enabling monitoring of the cancer burden and supporting research and healthcare planning. The portal includes data from the Slovenian Cancer Registry on incidence and prevalence from 1961 onwards, and on cancer mortality from 1985 onwards.
Cancer Data
Users can generate their own visualisations with an interactive tool that presents data in tables and graphs. They can select various cancer burden indicators, cancer types, age groups, sex, and time periods.
Before using the SLORA web portal, we recommend looking up the basic definitions of indicators and information about cancer, as correct interpretation of the results is essential for appropriate presentation. For further explanation or more complex analyses, please contact the Slovenian Cancer Registry.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is cancer really on the rise in Slovenia? What do terms such as incidence, prevalence, mortality, and survival mean? Why do the numbers sometimes fluctuate significantly from year to year?
Answers to these and similar questions are available in the FAQs section.
The Slovenian Cancer Registry provides high-quality, comprehensive data on all Slovenian cancer patients in accordance with international standards. Due to the complexity of data collection and verification, the data are available with a certain time lag relative to the year of diagnosis, which is consistent with international practice. To provide more up-to-date insights, the Slovenian Cancer Registry prepares estimates of new cancer cases based on analyses of recent trends – these projections of new cancer cases for the current year are also available on the SLORA web portal.
