Screening outcomes at second FIT screening in individuals with a first time negative FIT‐result or low‐risk adenomas: Results from a nationwide FIT screening program

International Journal of Cancer, EarlyView.
What's New? Fecal immunochemical test (FIT) screening is increasingly common as a population‐based screening tool for colorectal cancer (CRC). If the follow‐up colonoscopy after a positive FIT detects only low‐risk adenomas, those participants are recommended to continue biennial screenings, the same as people with negative FIT results.

Invitation for FOBt screening and colorectal cancer mortality: A prospective analysis in the Million Women Study cohort

International Journal of Cancer, EarlyView.
The screening effectiveness of population screening programmes can differ from the screening efficacy measured in randomised controlled trials and is often difficult to measure directly.
