The crude cancer mortality rate rose from 196.9 in 2014 to 230.8 in 2024.
Cancer mortality is Taiwan’s largest cause-of-death signal over time. The crude rate rose from 196.9 deaths per 100,000 in 2014 to 230.8 in 2024, alongside 54,032 cancer deaths in the latest year. Crude rates reflect population ageing as well as disease burden, so age-standardized rates should be used for strict risk comparisons.
