US Mortality Rates for All Types of Cancer

Cancer survival statistics are typically expressed as the proportion of patients alive at some point subsequent to the diagnosis of their cancer. Statistics compare the survival of patients diagnosed with cancer with the survival of people in the general population who are the same age, race, and sex and who have not been diagnosed with cancer.

Description
Because survival statistics are based on large groups of people, they cannot be used to predict exactly what will happen to an individual patient. If your health is otherwise perfect, you’re likely to have a greater chance of survival than the statistics suggest. So while cancer survival rates can give a general idea about most people in your situation, they can’t give your individual chances for cure or remission. For that reason, some people ignore cancer survival rate statistics. Remember, no two patients are entirely alike, and treatment and responses to treatment can vary greatly.
