Archived Reports and Technical Notes

U.S. Cancer Statistics data are updated each year. Cancer registries submit data for the new diagnosis year and also update previously submitted data. Federal agencies in turn update their cancer incidence statistics with each data submission. Users of cancer incidence data should be mindful of the data submission date for all data used in their comparisons.
