Abstract

The series is primarily intended to document the disease classifications used in the Population Health Impact of Disease in Canada (PHI) research program and help researchers to understand how the PHI estimates were calculated. It is also of interest to health professionals, advocacy groups, and individual Canadians who are looking for an overview of how living with cancer affects day-to-day functioning throughout its various stages of progression and treatment."
