The term "incidence" refers to the number of newly diagnosed cases of a disease occurring in a specific population during a specific time period. The incidence rate is the number of newly diagnosed cases in a specific population during a specific time period per "x" number of people; usually the time period is one year and "x" number of people is 100,000. Such an incidence rate is "crude", is not age adjusted (see #11 below) and therefore cannot be used to compare different populations.

age-specific incidence rate is the number of newly diagnosed cases of a disease in a specific age group in a particular population over a specified time period per "x" number of people in that age group. Typically, five-year age groups (0-4, 5-9, 10-14, etc.) are used. The time period is usually one year and the "x" number of people in the specific age group is usually 100,000.

age-adjusted rate is different from a crude rate in that the incidence rate is modified to take into account how the age distribution of the population of interest varies from a conventionally-used "standard population". It is important that the same standard population be used so that age-adjusted rates can be compared to each other. The U.S. 1970 population has been used as a standard for many years, and the U.S. 2000 population will soon be used as the standard.
