Why CME Course On Colorectal Cancer In Singapore Is Important

Colorectal cancer is one of the most common types of cancer in Singapore. It is highly curable when diagnosed early. However, it often does not show any symptoms in the early stages. As such, regular screening, the ability to identify at-risk patients, and timely referral to a specialist for treatment are key. 

The e-learning module aims to provide a short overview of colorectal cancer, explain its risk factors, discuss screening guidelines, and look at management options.

By the end of the course, physicians should be able to gain more knowledge about colorectal cancer, including its development as well as more insights to help them recognize risk factors.

The online course’s objectives also aimed at supporting doctors come up with more treatment options for their patients, such as understanding the screening guidelines for colorectal cancer and the role of the primary care physician in starting and following up on screening of patients at the right time. In addition, participants can expect to gain more learnings about the treatment options for colorectal cancer and the role of the primary care physician in its management.
