Lifetime probability of developing cancer and dying from cancer in Canada, 1997 to 2020
Articles and reports: 82-003-X202300900002Description: According to recent Canadian estimates, over two in five Canadians will likely develop cancer in their lifetime, and one in four is expected to die of it. The lifetime probabilities of developing cancer and dying from cancer are useful summary statistics that describe the impact of cancer within a population. However, there is little information on how lifetime probabilities of developing cancer and dying from cancer have changed over time. This study aims to present detailed lifetime probabilities of developing cancer and dying from cancer by sex and cancer type, and to describe changes in these lifetime probabilities over time among the Canadian population. no: 9Issue Number: 2023009Volume: 34Author(s): Liu, JiaQi L.; Zhang, Shary Xinyu; Billette, Jean-Michel; Demers, Alain A.DOI: https://doi.org/10.25318/82-003-x202300900002-engMain Product:Health Reports
