Czech National Colorectal Cancer Screening Programme
Colorectal cancer is one of the most common cancers diagnosed in developed countries. Every year in the Czech Republic, approximately 7,200 cases of colorectal cancer and more than 3,000 deaths from colorectal cancer are reported. The symptom-free period of colorectal cancer can last for several years, so it is important not to hesitate and to make an appointment for colorectal cancer screening in time. Early detection of colorectal cancer is the key to a successful treatment!
