Colorectal Cancer Screening and Mortality Trends in the United States Over 25 Years: A Story of Success and Inequity
CRC screening increased over the past 25 years, achieving 76.3% in 2023, correlating with decrease in AAMRs. Disparities persist across races and different socioeconomic groups. At 100% screening rates, projected AAMR is 18.919. Equity-focused interventions are needed to further increase CRC screening rates.
