Quick Profiles Report

Purpose:

Provides a quick look for assessing the burden and risk for a major cancer site for the US overall or for a selected state. The Quick Profile is constructed using a table for each data topic across the cancer control continuum (demographics, screening and risk factors, cancer knowledge, incidence, prevalence, mortality). Each of these tables has a state rate and U.S. Rate where available. Graphs and Maps are linked from these statistics.

Cancer statistics require careful interpretation. See the information page about interpret rankings for insight into interpreting cancer statistics particularly if you are a new user of cancer statistics.

The table, graph and map links provide access to the interactive sections of the web site where custom data selections (e.g., sex or race) and interactive features (e.g., sorting) are available.
