Summary

This study looked at the best ways to encourage childhood cancer survivors who are at high risk for colorectal cancer to get screened at the recommended age. Researchers tested different methods to see which helped more people complete a colonoscopy or stool-based test. The goal is to improve early detection and prevent cancer in this vulnerable group.
