SEER Cancer Statistics Review, 1975-2009 - Previous Version

When the CSR was published in April 2012, US population data reflecting the 2010 Census were not available. This release uses the Vintage 2009 populations in the rate and trend calculations.

This is a past version of the SEER Cancer Statistics Review that includes statistics from 1975 through 2009. If you would like to view the most recent version of the CSR, please visit the CSR Home Page.
