Colorectal cancer is currently top cancer among Malaysians today. More worrying is the fact that most of the cases continue to be detected in late stages. Peer-reviewed evidence points to doctors and other health care professionals playing a major role in educating and convincing patients to go for regular colorectal screening.

The Malaysian Medical Association Public Health Society, in partnership with the National Cancer Society of Malaysia, Malaysian Oncological Society (MOS), and Malaysian Society of Colorectal Surgeons (MSCRS) have developed a series of booklets that can be used as educational materials for patients by doctors. These booklets are in pdf format and can be printed individually for ease of use. They can also be forwarded as pdfs to your patients to be utilized.
