Of the women sent a 27-month reminder letter by a cervical cytology register in 2009, 32% rescreened within 3 months
In 2010, for every 1,000 women screened, 9 women had a high-grade abnormality detected by histology
Incidence and mortality were higher in Indigenous women than in non-Indigenous women
