Determinants of Racial/Ethnic Colorectal Cancer Screening Disparities

Abstract

Determinants of racial/ethnic CRC screening disparities vary among minority groups, suggesting the need for different interventions to mitigate those disparities. Whereas socioeconomic, access, and language barriers seem to drive the CRC screening disparities experienced by blacks and Hispanics, additional factors may exacerbate the disparities experienced by Asians.
