This volume provides a comprehensive overview of quality metrics
and methods used to improve quality for all major modalities of CRC
screening. It introduces the readers to the evidence of
effectiveness behind various CRC screening modalities: stool-based
tests (Fecal Occult Blood, Fecal Immunochemical and Fecal DNA
tests), flexible sigmoidoscopy, colonoscopy and CT colonography.
In-depth chapters review the latest guidelines for CRC screening,
compare differences among the five major national guidelines, and
highlight the need for valid quality and cost indicators. While the
main focus of this volume is on colonoscopy, since most quality
indicators and analyses have focused on this modality of screening
and surveillance, one chapter is devoted to quality indicators of
other screening modalities. Differences between process and outcome
measures are also highlighted and a small but valid set of
recommended national measures are listed. Written by experts in the
field, Colorectal Cancer Screening: Quality and Benchmarks is an
important and useful resource written for gastroenterologists,
primary care physicians, general and colorectal surgeons, family
physicians, and investigators with research focus in screening and
quality metrics.
