* The source adds that the data for these analyses was extracted from the cancer registration database maintained by the National Disease Registration Service (NDRS) on October 6, 2022. It can take up to five years for cancer registrations in England to reach full completeness due to ongoing accrual of late registrations. While further changes may occur after five years as a result of later diagnostic testing, such late changes are uncommon.
cases of cancer = All malignant cancers excluding non-melanoma skin cancer (NMSC).
