About this listen
There are areas for improvement in how we prevent cancer, with the number of new cases expected to jump in the next two decades.
The Cancer Control Agency's latest State of Cancer report shows cancer's on the rise.
Diagnoses are expected to rise from 30 thousand this year to more than 45 thousand in 2044.
Cancer Society National Chief Executive Nicola Coom told Andrew Dickens people with cancer are living longer, but we could have less cancer to begin with if we introduced more screening.
She says other OECD countries we compare ourselves to are preventing more cancer because they do far more in the cancer prevention space than we do.
