Abstract:
|
In the present study, we study cancer mortality rates by regions in the United States. We have identified major clusters with respect to several types of cancers and provide a connection to the environmental index. Regional comparisons based on the type of cancers are also presented in order to identify the regional risk for each type of cancer.
