Women living in North America have the highest

rate of breast cancer in the world.

Incidence and death rates from breast cancer

are loweramong women of other racial and ethnic groups

thanamong white and African American

women

At this time there are about 2.5 million breast cancer survivors in the United

States.

Breast cancer is the second leading cause of cancer

death in women, exceeded only by lung cancer.

Death rates from breast cancer have been declining

since about 1990, with larger decreases in women

younger than 50.

These decreases are believed to be the result of earlier detection through

screening and increased awareness, as well as improved treatment.
