The Fear of Cancer Recurrence Inventory

The Fear of Cancer Recurrence Inventory (FCRI) is a tool used by healthcare professionals to measure how much a person fears that their cancer might come back. It helps assess the level and nature of these worries, including their intensity, frequency, and impact on daily life. This understanding allows clinicians to identify patients who may need additional psychological support or targeted interventions to manage their anxiety related to cancer recurrence, ultimately improving overall well-being and quality of life during and after treatment.
