CAG-POS

Each year, 5000 Danes are diagnosed with colorectal cancer. Despite standardized treatment, many experience complications or disease recurrence, increasing costs and reducing return-to-work rates. A tailored, personalized surgical approach—stratifying patients by phenotype and genotype—can improve outcomes. The CAG-POS collaboration aims to enhance oncological surgery by integrating big data, predictive models, and multidisciplinary expertise to optimize patient care.
