Data for these figures came from the New Zealand Cancer Registry, managed by Te Whatu Ora - Health New Zealand.
Figures showing the top-10 most common cancers were created from the most recent five-year period for which data were available from the National Collections.
Rate data are age-standardised to the 2001 Māori Census Population.
Te Aho o Te Kahu-generated charts present data using 95% confidence intervals (95% CI) to show the statistical precision of the estimates. Wider confidence intervals indicate less precise estimates than narrow intervals, caused by higher variation with the smaller numbers used in the analysis.
