Expanding Cancer Data: New Module Provides Districts
If you want to learn more about cancer in your community, do you know where to find information? Maybe, you are a public health official who needs to understand how cancer in your state compares to other states or the nation. The U.S. Cancer Statistics Data Visualizations Tool is user-friendly and makes it easy for anyone to explore and use the official federal United States Cancer Statistics (USCS) data, which includes the rates of new cancers and cancer deaths for the whole U.S. population.
Now, you can see these data in a new way: by Congressional district (which are based on the size of the population). This new module provides a more detailed view of cancer incidence and death rates to identify trends and geographic differences, and help inform programs and policies in areas where cancer prevention and control efforts are needed most. These data are presented by cancer type, sex, race, and ethnicity.
