A combination of clinical risk stratification and fecal immunochemical test results to prioritize colonoscopy screening in asymptomatic participants

摘要

Stool-based colonoscopy is the preferred strategy for colorectal cancer (CRC) screening. The Asia-Pacific Colorectal Screening System (APCS) score also is helpful in stratifying the risk for advanced neoplasia in the asymptomatic population. The combination of the fecal immunochemical test (FIT) result and clinical risk stratification may be more helpful in stratifying the risk.
