Population‐based cancer survival (2001 to 2009) in the United States: Findings from the CONCORD‐2 study

Year: 2017

Type: article

Study design: Observational Study

Abstract: The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention helps to support a nationwide network of population‐based cancer registries that collect information regarding all patients diagnosed with cancer. These data tell a compelling story about the disproportionate burden of lower cancer survival experienced by vulnerable populations, and can be used by state and national partners to inform cancer control activities.
