Detailed statistics: Aboriginal cancer incidence and mortality
Aboriginal cancer incidence and mortality dashboard
The following dashboards present cancer incidence and mortality statistics on Aboriginal people, by most common cancer and age groups, filtered by sex.
Caution is required when interpreting measures and outcomes for Aboriginal people due to changing rates of Aboriginal identification across data collections and variations across geographies and socioeconomic groups.
Note: For privacy and confidentiality reasons, data rows with counts less than 5 are excluded from report outputs, but the data are included in relevant totals.
