3 The age-specific rate method (www.idph.state.il.us/cancer/pdf/projections/Final_methodsV2_no_examples_updated_for_2007-2010.pdf) was utilized to project 2010 estimates of all primary brain tumors using the NPCR/SEER 2004-2006 age-sex-race-specific brain tumor incidence rates for a group by the age-sex-race-specific projections for that group. Projected population estimates for 2010 were derived from the 50 states and the District of Columbia using the US Census Bureau 1990-2006 population data (seer.cancer.gov/popdata/index.html).
