This "Cancer Statistics Monograph" from the Metropolitan Detroit Cancer Surveillance System (MDCSS) presents data specifically for the City of Detroit from 2010-2014. It focuses on the top 10 most frequently diagnosed cancers (incidence) and the top 10 leading causes of cancer death (mortality) within the city. The data is broken down by sex and race (African American and Caucasian).

For each of the four demographic groups (African American males, Caucasian males, African American females, and Caucasian females), the report provides:

• Bar charts: Showing the age-adjusted incidence and mortality rates for the top 10 cancers. These rates are adjusted to the 2000 US Census population for age, allowing for comparison across groups.

• Pie charts: Illustrating the proportion each cancer type represents out of all cancers within that demographic group.

• Tables: Listing the age-adjusted incidence and mortality rates, the actual number of cases (N), and the percentage of all cancers (%) for each of the top 10 cancers. Note that the N and % values are not age-adjusted.

This report offers a concise snapshot of the cancer burden in Detroit, highlighting the most prevalent cancer types and causes of death for different segments of the population. It's useful for anyone interested in understanding local cancer trends and disparities within the city.
