| Computation description: | Rates directly age-standardised to the 2001 Australian population. Analyses by state and territory, remoteness and Socio-Economic Indexes for Areas (SEIFA) Index of Relative Socio-economic Disadvantage (IRSD) are based on the state or territory and Statistical Area Level 2 (SA2) of the person at the time of their diagnosis. Rates that are considered unstable and should be interpreted with caution will be noted. Rates that are considered very unstable will not be published. Presented as:
