Notes:

a

Data for in situ breast cancers were not included for female breast cancer.

b

Rates are per 100,000 persons and standardized to the 2000 U.S. standard population.

c

The number of incident cases across the age groups do not total the overall number of cases, as cases under the age of 25 years were excluded.
