ABSTRACT

Through an overview of the colonic screening methods, the authors study colonoscopy with high emphasis. Taking into consideration its high sensitivity and specificity in the detection of colorectal carcinomas and adenomas, as well as the possibility of adenoma removal through examination, colonoscopy is recommended to be applied as the primary colonic screening within the scope of a national screening program.
