The effect of cultural and linguistic diversity on the timeliness of prostate cancer treatment: a registry-based retrospective cohort study
Non-English-speaking-CALD individuals experienced greater delays in the definitive treatment of intermediate- and high-risk PCa than Australian-born individuals, which is largely explained by the type of diagnosing health institution. More timely treatment for non-English-speaking-CALD will require less delay in public hospitals.
