TY - JOUR AU - Baek, Dong Hoon AU - Kim, Gwang Ha PY - 2019 TI - Can transrectal ultrasound-guided core needle biopsy serve as an accurate diagnostic tool for rectal lesions? JF - Annals of Translational Medicine; Vol 8, No 4 (February 29, 2020): Annals of Translational Medicine (Focus on "Intrauterine Adhesion") Y2 - 2019 KW - N2 - Colorectal cancer (CRC) is one of the most common cancers and the leading cause of cancer-related deaths worldwide. The widespread use of colonoscopy in recent times has improved the CRC detection rate; approximately 70% of CRCs involves the colon and 30% affects the rectum (1).
