Small area disease mapping of cancer incidence in British Columbia using Bayesian spatial models and the smallareamapp R Package

Small area disease mapping of cancer incidence in British Columbia using Bayesian spatial models and the smallareamapp R Package

IntroductionThere is an increasing interest in small area analyses in cancer surveillance; however, technical capacity is limited and accessible analytical approaches remain to be determined. This study demonstrates an accessible approach for small area cancer risk estimation using Bayesian hierarch...
