SC SPOT was recognized at the 2023 Catchment Area Data Conference.

The South Carolina Cancer Surveillance for Population Health Research and Outreach Tool (SC SPOT) provides cancer-relevant data for all 46 counties in the state. Our goal is to share usable, understandable, and accessible data in order to foster research collaboration, empower communities, and advance health equity.

Beyond visualization of cancer cases and deaths, we explore social determinants of health across South Carolina communities and illustrate the distribution of risk factors, health care access, and population sociodemographics.

Join us on this journey of education, advocacy, and action as we work together towards improving cancer outcomes in South Carolina. For questions or feedback, please email us at sonawane@musc.edu. A detailed description of the methodology and data sources can be found in the SC SPOT methodology document.
