Contributions of early detection and cancer prevention to colorectal cancer mortality reduction by screening colonoscopy: a validated modelling study Gastrointest. Endosc. (IF 6.7) Pub Date : 2024-03-08 Thomas Heisser PhD, Dmitry Sergeev M.Sc., Michael Hoffmeister PhD, Hermann Brenner MD
Screening colonoscopy, recommended every ten years, reduces mortality from colorectal cancer (CRC) by early detection of prevalent but undiagnosed CRC, as well as by prevention of CRC by removal of precursor lesions. The aim of this study was to assess the relative contribution of both components to total CRC mortality reduction over time. Using a validated multistate Markov model, we simulated hypothetical
