Incidence projections are based on rates from the North American Association of Central
Cancer Registries(NAACCR) from 1995-2009, representing about 98% of the US population.
Estimated deaths are based on data from US Mortality Data, 1995-2009, National Center for
Health Statistics, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
Estimated deaths for colon & rectum cancers are combined.
Carcinoma in situ of the breast accounts for about 64,640 new cases annually,
and melanoma in situ accounts for about 61,300 new cases annually.
More deaths than cases suggests lack of specificity in recording underlying causes of
death on death certificate.
