ITHACA, New York, Sept. 19 -- Cornell University issued the following news:
Taking race into account when developing tools to predict a patient's risk of colorectal cancer leads to more accurate predictions when compared with race-blind algorithms, researchers find.
While many medical researchers have argued that race should be removed as a factor from clinical algorithms that predict disease risks, a new study finds that, at least for colorectal cancer, including . . .
