- ASR = Age-Standardized Rate per 100,000 individuals.
- CR = Crude Rate per 100,000 individuals at risk.
- Risk at 74 = Cumulative % risk of prostate cancer per 100 individuals at age 0-74.
- According to the United States National Library of Medicine, prostate cancer is the most common malignancy among elderly men and is the second leading malignancy in the Western world.
- Prostate cancer diagnoses are becoming more frequent, thanks largely to longer lifespans and improved screening methods.
- Healthcare networks in developed countries are more adept at detecting prostate cancer than are healthcare systems in developing/underdeveloped countries, which can complicate attempts to compare cancer rates between countries.
