Current Oncology | National Colorectal Cancer Awareness Month

Colorectal cancer is the third most common cancer worldwide, originating in the colon or rectum and characterized by uncontrolled cell growth in their lining.  Early detection through screenings is vital for successful treatment and improved survival rates. March is the National Colorectal Cancer Awareness Month. We would like to take this opportunity to express our gratitude to all of the researchers who have contributed to this field. In particular, we would like to share some of the innovative research findings in the field of colorectal cancer, published in Current Oncology (ISSN: 1718-7729).
