FIGURE 7 Age-Adjusted Cancer Death Rates, * for Females by Site, US, 1930-1997

*Rates are per 100,000 and are age-adjusted to the 1970 US standard population.

{dagger} Uterus cancer death rates are for uterine cervix and uterine corpus combined.

Note: Due to changes in ICD coding, numerator information has changed over time. Rates for cancers of the uterus, ovary, lung & bronchus, and colon & rectum are affected by these coding changes.
