Abstract

The article offers information on residual treatment disparities after oncology referral for colorectal cancer. It states that a group of researchers identified that the inequalities between black and white patients in the use of adjuvant treatment for rectal cancer are most prevalent in younger patients. The methods employed by the authors in suggesting this observation are also discussed.
