Bowel cancer, the second most diagnosed and cause of cancer death is preventable. Low risk people need no screening or just inexpensive fecal occult blood tests. Increased risk people need the more expensive and invasive colonoscopies. There is overuse of colonoscopy by those at low risk and underuse by those at high risk. Our Centre brings together scientists, epidemiologists and clinicians to develop a personalised risk tool and methods to implement the tool to increase appropriate screening.

肠癌是第二大诊断和癌症死亡原因，是可以预防的。低风险人群不需要筛查或只需进行便宜的粪便潜血试验。增加风险的人需要更昂贵和侵入性结肠镜检查。低风险人群过度使用结肠镜检查，而高风险人群使用不足。我们的中心汇集了科学家，流行病学家和临床医生，以开发个性化的风险工具和方法来实施该工具，以增加适当的筛查。
