AIHW - Cancer Incidence and Mortality Across Regions (CIMAR) - Persons Incidence (PHA) 2006-2010

This dataset presents the footprint of cancer incidence statistics in Australia for all cancers combined. The data spans the years 2006-2010 and is aggregated to the 2011 Public Health Information Development Unit (PHIDU) Population Health Areas (PHA), based on the 2011 Australian Statistical Geography Standard (ASGS).\n\nIncidence data refer to the number of new cases of cancer diagnosed in a given time period. It does not refer to the number of people newly diagnosed (because one person can be diagnosed with more than one cancer in a year). Cancer incidence data come from the Australian Institute of Health and Welfare (AIHW) 2012 Australian Cancer Database (ACD).\n\nFor further information about this dataset, please visit:\n\n * [Australian Institute of Health and Welfare - Cancer Incidence and Mortality Across Regions (CIMAR) books.](https://www.aihw.gov.au/reports/cancer/cimar-books/contents/cimar-books)\n\n * [Australian Cancer Database 2012 Data Quality Statement.](https://meteor.aihw.gov.au/content/index.phtml/itemId/624388)\n\nPlease note:\n\n * AURIN has spatially enabled the original data using the [PHIDU - PHAs.](http://phidu.torrens.edu.au/help-and-information/about-our-data/geographical-structures#population-health-areas)\n\n * Due to changes in geographic classifications over time, long-term trends are not available.\n\n * Values assigned to "n.p." in the original data have been removed from the data.\n\n * The Australian and jurisdictional totals include people who could not be assigned to a PHA. The number of people who could not be assigned a PHA is less than 1% of the total.\n\n * The Australian total also includes residents of Other Territories (Cocos (Keeling) Islands, Christmas Island and Jervis Bay Territory).\n\n * The ACD records all primary cancers except for basal and squamous cell carcinomas of the skin (BCCs and SCCs). These cancers are not notifiable diseases and are not collected by the state and territory cancer registries.\n\n * The diseases coded to ICD-10 codes D45-D46, D47.1 and D47.3-D47.5, which cover most of the myelodysplastic and myeloproliferative cancers, were not considered cancer at the time the ICD-10 was first published and were not routinely registered by all Australian cancer registries. The ACD contains all cases of these cancers which were diagnosed from 1982 onwards and which have been registered but the collection is not considered complete until 2003 onwards.\n\n * Note that the incidence data presented are for 2006-2010 because 2011 and 2012 data for NSW and ACT were not able to be provided for the 2012 ACD.\n

本数据集呈现了澳大利亚所有癌症合并统计的癌症发病概况。数据时间跨度为2006年至2010年，聚合至基于2011年澳大利亚统计地理标准（Australian Statistical Geography Standard, ASGS）划定的2011年公共卫生信息发展单元（Public Health Information Development Unit, PHIDU）人口健康区（Population Health Areas, PHA）。

发病数据指的是在特定时间段内确诊的癌症新发病例数，而非新确诊患者人数——因单一个体在同一年内可能被确诊罹患多种癌症。癌症发病数据来源于澳大利亚卫生与福利研究所（Australian Institute of Health and Welfare, AIHW）2012年版《澳大利亚癌症数据库（Australian Cancer Database, ACD）》。

请注意：

* 澳大利亚城市与区域信息网络（AURIN）已基于[PHIDU人口健康区]对原始数据进行了空间化适配处理。(http://phidu.torrens.edu.au/help-and-information/about-our-data/geographical-structures#population-health-areas)

* 由于地理分类体系随时间发生变更，无法获取该数据集的长期趋势数据。

* 原始数据中标记为"n.p."的数值已从数据集中移除。

* 澳大利亚及各管辖区的统计总数包含了无法被分配至人口健康区的人群，此类人群占总统计人数的比例不足1%。

* 澳大利亚全国统计总数还涵盖了其他领地（科科斯（基林）群岛、圣诞岛以及杰维斯湾领地）的居民。

* 澳大利亚癌症数据库收录了除皮肤基底细胞癌（basal and squamous cell carcinomas, BCCs）与鳞状细胞癌（SCCs）之外的所有原发性癌症。此类癌症不属于法定报告疾病，未被各州及领地的癌症登记机构纳入收录范围。

* 对应ICD-10编码D45-D46、D47.1及D47.3-D47.5的疾病（涵盖绝大多数骨髓增生异常综合征与骨髓增殖性肿瘤），在ICD-10首次发布时未被归类为癌症，且未被澳大利亚所有癌症登记机构常规登记。该数据库收录了1982年以来确诊的此类癌症的所有登记病例，但完整收录工作直至2003年才实现。

* 需说明的是，本次呈现的发病数据为2006-2010年的统计结果，原因是2012年版澳大利亚癌症数据库无法提供新南威尔士州（New South Wales, NSW）与首都领地（Australian Capital Territory, ACT）2011年及2012年的相关数据。
