Data source: NAACCR's CINA December 2005 submission of 1995 through 2003 patients.
AI/AN indicates American Indian/Alaska Native.
NAACCR registries minus SEER registries; excludes Seattle from Washington, Detroit from Michigan, and Atlanta from Georgia.
Rate per 100 000; age-adjusted based on 2000 US standard population.
Differences in incidence rates across demographic categories (year of diagnosis, sex, or race) were statistically significant (P < .05) within SEER registries, NAACCR minus SEER registries, and all registries combined
Differences in incidence rates by ethnicity were statistically significant (P < .05) within NAACCR minus SEER registries, and all registries combined, but not for SEER registries alone.
