Predicted age-specific five-year net survival estimates for selected primary types of cancer, by sex, three years of cases, inactive
Description
National (excluding Quebec) estimates of five-year net survival for 11 types of cancer by age group at diagnosis. Net survival refers to the survival probability that would be observed in the hypothetical situation where the cancer of interest is the only possible cause of death. Predicted survival provides a more up-to-date estimate of survival by exclusively using the survival experienced by cancer cases during a recent period.<br>
