What to know
In 2021, all registries except Indiana met the publication criteria. Counts and rates cover 98% of the U.S. population.
Overview
Publication criteria were assessed based on data submitted to CDC's National Program of Cancer Registries and the National Cancer Institute's Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results Program in 2023. Criteria must be met for all diagnosis years for the combined 2017 to 2021 data. Segments of a registry's data may be suppressed when that information is found to be unstable or does not meet the publication criteria.
