Cancer statistics

We compile Victorian cancer statistics (see below) using the Victorian Cancer Registry.

Nationally, states supply statistics to the Australian Institute of Health and Welfare (AIHW), which compiles reports like Cancer in Australia: An Overview 2006. The Australian Bureau of Statistics also produces national reports.

For international statistics, search the CancerMondial site.
