Since the implementation of the National Mycobacterial Surveillance System (NMSS) in 1991, the epidemiology and trends of tuberculosis in Australia have been described in a series of annual reports. This article presents an analysis of the data for tuberculosis notifications for 1996. A total of 1,037 notifications of tuberculosis were received for the year 1996, and the crude rates of new and relapsed disease were reported at 5.37 per 100,000 and 0.29 per 100,000 respectively. Rates of tuberculosis have remained stable over the last decade and the majority of notifications and highest rates of disease continue to occur in the overseas-born population.
自1991年国家分枝杆菌监测系统（NMSS）实施以来，澳大利亚结核病的流行病学情况和趋势已在一系列年度报告中有所描述。本文对1996年结核病通报数据进行了分析。1996年共收到1037例结核病通报，新发病例和复发病例的粗发病率分别报告为每10万人5.37例和每10万人0.29例。在过去十年中，结核病发病率一直保持稳定，大多数通报病例和最高发病率仍出现在出生于海外的人群中。
