Footnotes:

a U.S. 2011 cancer prevalence counts are based on 2011 cancer prevalence proportions from the SEER 9 registries and 1/1/2011 U.S. population estimates based on the average of 2010 and 2011 population estimates from the U.S. Bureau of the Census.

b Prevalence estimates are ambiguous for those with multiple cancers, unless the tumor inclusion criteria are understood. Depending on the application, different inclusion criteria may be appropriate. This table provides three different methods of tumor inclusion which are listed in footnotes (c) to (e).

c First invasive tumor ever. Referred to as method (c) in Example below.

d First invasive tumor for each cancer site diagnosed during the previous 36 years (1975-2010). All sites is treated as a separate cancer "site". Referred to as method (d) in Example below.

e First invasive tumor for each cancer site diagnosed during the previous 5 years (2006-2010). All sites is treated as a separate cancer "site". Referred to as method (e) in Example below.

Example: Consider a woman who had three invasive cancers: Melanoma in 1981; Breast cancer in 2006; Melanoma in 2007.
In method (c) the melanoma is the woman's first cancer, and is counted for the melanoma and all sites 36-year limited duration prevalence. For 5-year limited duration prevalence, the woman is not counted at all since her first cancer occurred more than 5 years prior to 1/1/2011.
In method (d) the 1981 melanoma is counted for the melanoma and all sites 36-year limited duration prevalence. The 2006 breast cancer is counted for the breast 5-year and 36-year limited duration prevalence.
In method (e) the 2006 breast cancer is counted for the breast cancer and all sites 5-year limited duration prevalence. The 2007 melanoma is counted for 5-year limited duration prevalence for melanoma.

f Ovary excludes borderline cases or histologies 8442, 8451, 8462, 8472, and 8473.
