Notes:
Created by
statecancerprofiles.cancer.gov on
04/27/2009 10:42 am.
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 data quality standards for one
or more years during the rate period of
data collection. While 96% of the US
population resided in geographic areas
with population-based cancer registries
meeting the registry eligibility
criteria for 2005, 4% of the US
population was not yet represented in
the
United States Cancer Statistics.
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.

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. So 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.
