Description
Summary:	This publication represents the most comprehensive analysis of cancer survival trends and patterns throughout England and Wales. Three million cancer patients survival trends were analysed for this report and findings are displayed within clearly presented tables, charts and graphs which are broken down by age, sex, geographic region and socioeconomic status for 58 different cancers in adults and children. The report reveals the extent of the 'deprivation gap' in survival between cancer patients living in affluent areas and those in deprived areas.<br>
