Cervical screening in Australia 2004-2005 is the ninth annual report on key program activity, performance and outcome indicators to monitor the achievements of the National Cervical Screening Program. The report provides a comprehensive national picture of cervical screening in Australia for 2004-2005. The report presents most recent information on participation in cervical screening, rate of early re-screening, low-grade and high-grade abnormalities detected, incidence of cervical cancer and morality. Analyses of incidence and mortality data by location (major cities, regional and remote) as well as mortality by Indigenous status are also presented. Where possible, data are presented by state and territory stratification. The report will be relevant to anyone with an interest in women's health or cervical screening, including health planners and administrators, various health practitioners, academic researchers and the general public.
