How is an incidence case defined? Are all primary malignant and non-malignant tumors included in the analysis? Are only malignant tumors included in the analysis? What tumor locations (primary sites) are included in the analysis? Are lymphomas and hemopoietic neoplasms included in the rates? Are the populations comparable? Are the rates age-adjusted? And if so, to which standard population are they age-adjusted? Differences in case definition, data collection, methodology, analysis, and rate computation may prevent the direct comparison of published rates between sources. Please read the “Differences in Brain Tumor Definition” section on page 14-15 of the CBTRUS 2007-2008 Statistical Report for more information.
