About the tables

These interactive tables provide the latest cancer registration data for New Zealand. When you choose cancers of interest from a list, the data and graphs automatically update based on your choice:

  • The ten most common cancer registrations for 2014 by ethnic group and sex. Data is also included for years
    2005–2013 to enable trend analysis.
  • Numbers and rates of new cancer registration for groups of cancer, by sex for 2014.
  • Numbers of new cancer registrations for individual cancers for 2014, by sex, ethnic group, life-stage age group, deprivation quintile, district health board region and regional cancer network.

These tables form part of the Cancer: New registrations and deaths series. The full publication, based on this data, is expected to be released in 2017.
