Health Promotion Board cancer surveillance for Singapore appears in this collection as age-standardised incidence rates for the top three cancers among men and women by five-year period. The CSV mirrors HPB’s published methodology standardised to the Segi World Population per 100,000 residents. Epidemiologists and public health teams can compare gender-specific cancer patterns using the same series noted for ongoing retrospective case updates. Interpret rates alongside HPB notes on annual revisions.
The table/figure shows the age-standardised incidence rate (per 100,000 population) of the top three cancers among men and women in Singapore. The rates are expressed as per 100,000 residential population and standardised to the Segi World Population. The numbers will be updated annually due to ongoing retrospective case collection.
