Different types of cancer

This information is aimed to support you to understand how specific cancers are diagnosed and treated, and how to find additional support. This is important as no two cancers are the same. Testing, treatment and side effects can be different for each cancer type.

You can download any of our Understanding Cancer booklets on our download resources webpage. If you are a patient, family or friend and would like to order a copy, please call Cancer Council 13 11 20. These booklets give more detail about each cancer

If you can’t find what you are looking call Cancer Council 13 11 20 to speak to one of our Cancer Information and Support team.

These are some of the more common cancers, but we do have information on other cancers, please visit our download resources webpage for other cancer types
