Colorectal cancer is a major global health problem, with survival varying according to stage at diagnosis. Delayed diagnosis can result from patient, practitioner or hospital delay. This paper reports the results of a review of the factors influencin... Read More about Influences on pre-hospital delay in the diagnosis of colorectal cancer: a systemic review.
