The Australian Institute of Health and Welfare have published cancer incidence, mortality and screening statistics (actual counts and rates) by geographical areas larger than the SA2 level used in the Australian Cancer Atlas. These geographical areas include Primary Health Networks (PHN), SA4s, SA3s, Population Health Areas, State by remoteness, state and territory and Greater Capital City Statistical Area (GCCSA).
