Overview
Epidemiology and Demographics
Prevalence
- In the United States, the age-adjusted prevalence of cancer of the lungs and bronchus is estimated to be 100 per 100,000.[1]
- The most common type of lung cancer is non–small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). About 85%–90% of all lung cancers are non–small cell lung cancer. The other 10%–15% are small cell lung cancer.[2]
Incidence
- In 2014 the incidence of lung cancer was approximately 70 cases per 100,000.[3]
