Cancer : Detailed Guide

*** 5 ***

Over one million people get cancer each year. Anyone can get cancer at any age; however, about 77% of all cancers are diagnosed in people age of 55 and older. Although cancer occurs in all racial and ethnic groups, the rate of cancer occurrence (called the incidence rate) varies from group to group.

Millions of people are living with cancer or have been cured of the disease. The sooner a cancer is found and the sooner treatment begins, the better a patient's chances are of a cure. That's why early detection of cancer is such an important weapon in the fight against cancer.
