    2021 CBTRUS Report Available
     
    The Central Brain Tumor Registry of the United States (CBTRUS) announces the publication by Oxford University Press of its latest report, CBTRUS Statistical Report: Primary Brain and Other Central Nervous System Tumors Diagnosed in the United States in 2014-2018. The Report is the 10th Anniversary Supplement to the Society for Neuro-Oncology's journal, Neuro-Oncology, and is available online at www.cbtrus.org through a Free-to-View web link by clicking on Reports and Tables. Data collected by the CDC's National Program of Cancer Registries and NCI's Surveillance Epidemiology and End Results program were analyzed resulting in an incidence rate of 24.23 cases per 100,000 [7.06 per 100,000 for malignant tumors (125,524 cases) and 17.18 per 100,000 for non-malignant tumors (306,249 cases)] for all primary brain and other central nervous system tumors in 2014-2018. Data on molecular markers collected in 2018 are included in the Report. The efforts of hospital tumor registrars, central cancer registries, and staff from NPCR and SEER to collect accurate and complete data have contributed to making this report possible.
