Diagnostic and Treatment Intervals for Colorectal Cancer and Associations With Overall Survival and Disease Stage: An Australian Data Linkage Study.
This study aimed to assess associations between the length of diagnostic and treatment intervals and overall survival and stage of disease in colorectal cancer using Australian data. Three models, assessing the diagnostic and the treatment intervals showed a nonlinear association with both very short and long intervals associated with poorer outcomes.
