Colon and Rectal Cancer (colorectal cancer)
In today's world there are few families that have not been touched by cancer. Cancer is a leading cause of death worldwide (WHO 2004) and the biggest public health crisis facing Europe. Colorectal cancer is the second biggest killer in Europe and yet it is highly treatable if it is diagnosed early! Detection through screening and treatment at an early stage of the disease can and will make a difference!
europacolon is an independent Not for Profit Organisation founded in 2004.
It is the first European organisation dedicated to colorectal cancer and it aims to unite patients, carers, healthcare professionals, politicians, the media and the public in the fight against the disease.
