Female Breast Cancer All-Stage Incidence Rate: Louisiana, 2016-2020 Age 40-74, with SaTScan Clusters

Generated by Louisiana Tumor Registry, 7/11/2023.

The incidence rate of each census tract is calculated by the aggregated rate of the surrounding area, centering on the centroid of the census tract, to ensure the stability and confidentiality. Each of the surrounding area contains at least 20,000 population and 16 cases. The rates are age-adjusted to US standard 2000 population.

The circles are clusters detected by SaTScan software. Blue circles are statistically significant at 0.05 level.
