Colorectal Cancer Screening – The Missing Gap

This abstract has open access
Abstract Description

Colorectal Cancer Screening has already proven to be able to reduce CRC mortality in many studies, however, there are still issues in implementation of the screening method. 

1.    Compliance rate remains in Asia. Why and what are the keys to improve this?

2.    As there is a global of increasing young-onset of CRC, should we start screening at an earlier stage? If so, at what age? 

3.    What is the prevalence of hereditary CRC in Asia? Have we pay enough attention to family counselling? 

4.    Is AI-assisted colonoscopy ready to be implemented as a routine in CRC cancer? 

In this lecture, we will address these issues and report on updated information.
