A Closer Look at Breast Cancer
•  In addition to an estimated
   232,340 new cases of breast
   cancer among women in 2013,
   an estimated 2,240 cases are
   expected in men.

•  Steady declines in breast
   cancer mortality among
   women since 1989 have been
   attributed to a combination of
   early detection and
   improvements in treatment.

•  The 5-year relative survival rate
   for female invasive breast
   cancer patients has improved
   from 75% in the mid-1970s to
   90% today.

                                                expected in 2013,
                                                accounting for about 14%
                                                of cancer diagnoses.

                                             •  Lung cancer accounts for
                                                more deaths than any other
                                                cancer in both men and
                                                women.
