Jan 16, 2025: Our first profile of 2025: The Belgian Cystic Fibrosis Registry

There are at least 1,400 people living with Cystic Fibrosis (CF) in Belgium, and the Belgian Cystic Fibrosis Registry (started in 1998) covers about 90-95% of CF patients living in Belgium. By collecting data on almost all patients with CF cared for in Belgium, the BCFR gives a good and quite complete picture of the epidemiology of the disease and the evolution of the health status of CF patients.
