| Core Tip |
Colorectal cancer (CRC) screening is a fundamental tool in the prevention and early detection of one of the most prevalent and lethal cancers. Despite considerable advancements in screening technologies and strategies, the effectiveness of CRC screening programs remains less than optimal. This paper examines the multifaceted reasons behind the persistent lack of effectiveness in CRC screening initiatives. Through a critical analysis of current methodologies, technological limitations, patient-related factors, and systemic challenges, we elucidate the complex interplay that hampers the successful reduction of CRC morbidity and mortality rates. While acknowledging the advancements that have improved aspects of screening, we emphasize the necessity of addressing the identified barriers comprehensively. This study also aims to raise awareness of how important CRC screening is in reducing costs for this disease. Screening and early detection are not only relevant for an improved prognosis of patients with CRC, but result in an important reduction in the cost of treating a disease that is too far advanced. Spending more sooner can mean saving money later. |
