"United States Cancer Statistics: 2003 Incidence and Mortality is a joint publication of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) in Atlanta, Georgia; the National Cancer Institute (NCI) in Bethesda, Maryland; and the North American Association of Central Cancer Registries (NAACCR) in Springfield, Illinois. This is the fifth annual joint report produced, in collaboration with NAACCR, by the two federal programs that support population-based cancer registries in the United States: CDC's National Program of Cancer Registries (NPCR) and NCI's Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) Program. This report contains official federal government cancer statistics for more than 1 million invasive cancer cases diagnosed during 2003 among residents of 47 states, including 6 metropolitan areas, and the District of Columbia, and these geographic areas are inhabited by about 96% of the U.S. population. Data from population-based central cancer registries in these states and metropolitan areas meet the selected criteria for inclusion in this report." - p. v.
