Re: Ca colon screeningFrom: jkulkin (jkulkin@mindspring.com)Sat Dec 9 14:49:06 2000
A lot of debate on colo-rectal screening right now. Hemoccult testing still found by recent articles to be the most effective but papers also advocating screening colonoscopy as routine. I'm seeing papers critical from a statistical point of view however, the following remains. Only 20-30% of candidates for hemoccult testing get theirs done. Somehow I just don't think we'll see a rush of patients banging the doors down for screening colonoscopy. Practically however, it sure makes sense to do them. Colon cancer should go the way of cervical...if you're screened you shouldn't get it. JK Garry Siegel wrote:

The American Medical Association is no longer designating CME hours for AMA Category II CME credit. However, physicians themselves may self designate learning activities as Category II CME credit hours if they feel it is of sufficient educational merit and meets the formal definitions of continuing medical education. OBGYN.net believes these interaction in this forum meets these criteria. For further information see the AMA web site.
