Age-standardized five-year relative survival ratios, October 2011 CCR file, by sex, population aged 15 to 99, 3 years of cases, Canada and selected provinces

Table summary
This table displays the results of age-standardized five-year relative survival ratios. The information is grouped by primary site of cancer (appearing as row headers), 3 years of cases, both sexes, males, females, relative survival ratio, 95% confidence interval and low, calculated using low, high and percent units of measure (appearing as column headers).

	Relative survival ratio	95% confidence interval		Relative survival ratio	95% confidence interval		Relative survival ratio	95% confidence interval
	Relative survival ratio	Low	High	Relative survival ratio	Low	High	Relative survival ratio	Low	High
