History and Overview of the National Quality Strategy -- Current Screening and Surveillance Guidelines -- Comparative and Cost Effectiveness of Current CRC Screening Modalities -- Quality Indicators and Benchmarks For Guideline Recommended Fecal Occult Blood Tests (FOBT) -- Quality Indicators for CT Colonography (CTC) -- Stool DNA for Colorectal Cancer Screening: From Concepts to Quality Care -- Quality Indicators for Colonoscopy -- Toward a Learning Healthcare System: Use of Colorectal Cancer Quality Measures for Physician Evaluation -- Sedation Issues in Colonoscopy: Quality and Economic Considerations -- Role of Pathology in Quality of Colonoscopy -- Managing Quality in Ancillary Services -- Medical Legal Aspects of Quality Improvement -- Areas for Future Research.

This volume provides a comprehensive overview of quality metrics and methods used to improve quality for all major modalities of CRC screening. It introduces the readers to the evidence of effectiveness behind various CRC screening modalities: stool-based tests (Fecal Occult Blood, Fecal Immunochemical and Fecal DNA tests), flexible sigmoidoscopy, colonoscopy and CT colonography. In-depth chapters review the latest guidelines for CRC screening, compare differences among the five major national guidelines, and highlight the need for valid quality and cost indicators. While the main focus of this volume is on colonoscopy, since most quality indicators and analyses have focused on this modality of screening and surveillance, one chapter is devoted to quality indicators of other screening modalities. Differences between process and outcome measures are also highlighted and a small but valid set of recommended national measures are listed. Written by experts in the field, Colorectal Cancer Screening: Quality and Benchmarks is an important and useful resource written for gastroenterologists, primary care physicians, general and colorectal surgeons, family physicians, and investigators with research focus in screening and quality metrics.
