Colorectal cancer treatment

One of the most comprehensive assessments of the economic burden of treating bowel cancer has been completed by researchers at the York Health Economics Consortium, at the University of York, and the School of Health and Related Research, at the University of Sheffield.

The report, commissioned by the Department of Health, examines the costs and outcomes of the treatment for bowel (colorectal) cancer in the NHS in England.
