4. Parameters
Parameters
Locale - geographical regions
ICD Groups
Age Range
Time period
Gender - male, female or both
Population and Mortality
All input data is obtained from the official Mortality
Information System (Brazil, Ministry of Health, Health
Surveillance Department , DATASUS)

5. Areas of Study

Mortality and population information refers do distinct Brazilian
cities
Creation of delimited areas based on Brazilian cities
Geographical areas traditionally analyzed (Standardized):

– States (Federal Units, such as Goiás, Paraná, Rio de Janeiro, São Paulo,
Federal District, among others),
– Capitals (Goiânia, Curitiba, Rio de Janeiro, São Paulo, Brasília, and

New possibilities, any combination of cities (Personalized):
– 10 most populous cities
– 100 most polluted cities
– Greater Rio de Janeiro
– Metropolitan Region of São Paulo
– etcetera

6. ICD - International Classification of
Disease
Groups
Possibility to create groups of Cancer:
– Analyze any combination of topology
Unlimited range of cancer sites studies:
– The rates are based on World Population or Brazil
Population, so, if the sample analyzed is too small, the
rate will have no mining
ICD traditionally analyzed (Standardized):
– Boca, Bexiga, Pulmão, Fígado, …
New possibilities, any combination of topology
(Personalized):
– “Sistema digestivo”, “Sistema Respiratório”, …

Internationalization (I18N)
Analyze others factors of suspicious risks
Create new reports
Customizing the system to attend others
countries (specially about the input of data)

12. Conclusion
Cancer Control
The online Atlas user is able to explore any
indicator, at anytime, anywhere, for any cancer
