Dr. Dhurgshaarna Shanmugavadivel
The population-based Childhood Cancer Diagnosis study in the UK investigated diagnostic intervals among people aged 0-18 years diagnosed with cancer. The diagnostic intervals did not differ significantly for sex, ethnicity, or depreviation index, but were longest among patients aged 15-18 years and patients with bone tumors, and shortest among under ones and patients with renal tumors.
