A clinical rule-based indicator to identify recurrence of colorectal cancer after curative resection using linked routinely collected national data
The validity of the CRC recurrence indicator was supported by observed associations with tumour characteristics, self-reported recurrence, and poor overall survival in patients with recurrence. This indicator can be used in research and service evaluation, to overcome the problem of incomplete cancer recurrence recording in most national cancer registries.
