The number of new cancer cases diagnosed in Australia each year is predicted to rise by almost 40% from 2007, mainly due to the ageing of the population and growth in population numbers, according to a report released today by the Australian Institute of Health and Welfare (AIHW). The total number of new cancer cases diagnosed each year is projected to rise from an expected 118,000 in 2011 to about 150,000 in 2020. Increases are expected in rates of melanoma, lung, liver and thyroid cancer for females, while rates of stomach cancer are expected to fall.
