Listen "Future of Colorectal Cancer"
Episode Synopsis
Only 60% of age-eligible adults are up to date on their colorectal cancer screenings. Drew Gunnells, Jr., M.D., and Shajan Peter, M.D., discuss why the colonoscopy is still their preferred first-line screening and polyp removal method, while newer at-home screening methods are useful in regions with limited access to care. The doctors discuss advancements in A.I. that they use to improve the detection of polyps during a colonoscopy. Learn more about a local partnership to provide free colonoscopies to residents despite insurance status or other barriers.
