Breast Cancer Incidence Trends in Older US Women by Race, Ethnicity, Geography, and Stage
In this population-based cross-sectional analysis of BC incidence trends among older US women, racial and ethnic as well as stage-specific patterns differed across age groups, highlighting the importance of disaggregating BC incidence rates into age groups better aligned with screening guidelines. Future research is needed to directly examine the contribution of screening patterns to these trends and their impact on BC mortality.
