Cancer Data and Statistics

The United States Cancer Statistics: 2005 Incidence and Mortality report (USCS) combines cancer registry data from CDC's National Program of Cancer Registries and the National Cancer Institute's Surveillance, Epidemiology and End Results Program to produce a new set of official federal statistics on cancer incidence (newly diagnosed cases) for a single year.

The current report provides state-specific and regional data for cancer cases diagnosed and for cancer deaths that occurred in 2005, the most recent year for which incidence data are available.

Most of the statistics presented on this Web site are based on USCS data.
