Ohio Childhood Leukemia Mapping Assessment

As a follow up to the Ohio Department of Health’s 2005 cancer incidence surveillance report for the City of Avon Lake; a mapping of the incidences of childhood leukemia in Ohio was conducted. The resulting paper was recently published in the International Journal of Health Geographics.  These analyses do not indicate statistically significant clustering of childhood leukemia in Northeast Ohio.
