Fantastic Mount Sinai Division of Gastroenterology Grand Rounds talk by Aasma Shaukat MD MPH on CRC screening! Aside from colonoscopy, potential future options include multitarget stool RNA and DNA tests, cfDNA blood based tests, AI/machine learning. Organized screening & programmatic approaches will work best.
