Strategies to minimize interval CRC in screening programmes

Nature Reviews Gastroenterology & Hepatology, 2015
The interval colorectal cancer rate is a robust indicator of the quality and effectiveness of a screening programme, enabling the identification of unmet requirements and development of specific strategies to resolve them. A recent study demonstrated the use of interval cancer as an indicator to target quality improvement of colonoscopy in a screening ...

Screening for CRC Using CT Colonography

2011
Air contrast barium enema (ACBE), flexible sigmoidoscopy, and colonoscopy have been used to image the colon for many years. In recent years, a number of new techniques to image the colon have been introduced and prominent among these is computed tomographic (CT) colonography (also called “CTC,” “CT colography,” or “virtual colonoscopy”).

CRC risk knowledge does not affect screening compliance [PDF]

The Lancet Oncology, 2014
New research suggests that individualised genetic and environ mental risk assessment (GERA) for colorectal cancer (CRC) susceptibility does not improve screening adherence in people with an average risk for this cancer. David Weinberg (Fox Chase Cancer Center, Philadelphia, USA) and colleagues postulated that pro viding patients who had an average risk
