Figure 1. — Age-standardized rates (ASR) for lung cancer incidence worldwide. Figure 1a shows age-standardized incidence rates for lung cancer among males using data from GLOBOCAN, 2018. Lung cancer incidence among males is highest in Micronesia, Polynesia, Central and Eastern Europe, and Eastern Asia and lowest in most of Africa. Figure 1b shows age-standardized incidence rates for lung cancer among females using data from GLOBOCAN, 2018. Lung cancer incidence among females is highest in North America, Northern Europe, Western Europe, and Australia/New Zealand and lowest in most of Africa. Data source: GLOBOCAN 2018. Graph production: IARC (http://gco.iarc.fr/today), World Health Organization.
