What Is The ERICA Study

Overview

The ERICA project is a research project that aims to assess the clinical and cost-effectiveness of 6 eRATs (cancer risk calculators) – lung, oesophagogastric, kidney, bladder, ovarian, and colorectal. The aim is to see if using eRATs can help GP’s improve the early detection of cancer.
