Missouri’s cancer data is available in several formats.
Cancer Incidence MICAs (Missouri Information for Community Assessment)
is maintained by DHSS's Center for Health Information Management and Evaluation (CHIME). These MICAs allow the user to create tables showing
cancer incidence by year, age, sex, race, cancer site, stage, grade, and geographic area down to county (with some restrictions to protect confidentiality).
These MICAs provide the user with valuable cancer incidence data for 1996 through 2001 and are intended to be used by the general public, as well as
researchers, local public health agencies, and others.
Cancer Mortality MICA - The Death MICA provides data on deaths of Missouri residents.
United States Cancer Statistics - 1999-2004 Incidence:
Compiled by the CDC, NCI and NAACCR, this useful site contains official federal statistics from 50 states and the District of Columbia. Graphs/charts include: Top 10 cancers by geographic area, State vs. national comparisons and Selected cancers ranked by state..
CINA - Cancer In North America: is a publicly available data source which provides access to incidence data on all NAACCR major and minor cancer sites (including pediatric groups) for North America, the United States and Canada, with individual state- or province-specific data available.
Cancer Incidence in Five Continents (CI5): Compiled by the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC), the 1998 - 2002 dataset contained in Vol. IX represents MCR's first appearance in CI5. Data from 28 NPCR-funded programs, as well as the NPCR aggregate, is now available in Globocan, the internet version of Cancer in Five Continents.
