State Cancer Registries may provide more current or more local data. † Incidence rates (cases per 100,000 population per year) are age-adjusted to the 2000 US standard population (19 age groups: <1, 1-4, 5-9, ... , 80-84, 85+). Rates are for invasive cancer only (except for bladder cancer which is invasive and in situ) or unless otherwise specified. Rates calculated using SEER*Stat. Population counts for denominators are based on Census populations as modified by NCI. The US populations included with the data release have been adjusted for the population shifts due to hurricanes Katrina and Rita for 62 counties and parishes in Alabama, Mississippi, Louisiana, and Texas (See US Population Data - 1969-2005 for more information). § Data not provided because it did not meet USCS publication standards for one or more years during the rate period of data collection. American Cancer Society's Facts & Figures provides estimates of numbers of new cancer cases and deaths. # Data do not include cases diagnosed in other states for those states in which the data exchange agreement specifically prohibits the release of data to third parties. 1 Source: CDC's National Program of Cancer Registries Cancer Surveillance System (NPCR-CSS) November 2008/January 2009 data submission and SEER November 2008 submission. 2 Source: State Cancer Registry and the CDC's National Program of Cancer Registries Cancer Surveillance System (NPCR-CSS) November 2008/January 2009 data submission. 3 Source: SEER November 2008 submission. State Cancer Registry also receives funding from CDC's National Program of Cancer Registries. 4 State rates include rates from areas funded by SEER. Because of the impact on Louisiana's population for the July - December 2005 time period due to Hurricanes Katrina/Rita, SEER excluded Louisiana cases diagnosed for that six month time period. The count has been suppressed due to data consistency issues. Interpret Rankings provides insight into interpreting cancer incidence statistics. When the population size for a denominator is small, the rates may be unstable. A rate is unstable when a small change in the numerator (e.g., only one or two additional cases) has a dramatic affect on the calculated rate. Data not available for this combination of geography, cancer site, age, and race/ethnicity. Suppression is used to avoid misinterpretation when rates are unstable.
