Summary:Since April 2015, the Dutch Breast Implant Registry (DBIR) has registered characteristics of patients, surgical procedures, and breast implants to monitor, benchmark, and improve the quality of breast implant surgery in the Netherlands.

Every year a selection of quality indicators is published on the Transparency Calendar, making this information publicly available
