Core Tip |
Colorectal cancer (CRC) screening has become a standard of care in industrialized nations for those aged 50 to 75 years. While CRC screening has been shown to reduce the incidence and mortality of CRC, it is a complex multi-disciplinary process that frequently presents challenges to implementation. This is a focused review on 3 pivotal areas of CRC screening that require improvement: (1) suboptimal uptake of CRC screening; (2) poor outcomes manifesting as missed lesions and adverse events during the screening process; and (3) ongoing disparities among marginalized populations.
