Episode 24 Screening colonoscopy. Is it worth it?

There's ongoing debate as to whether some preventative screenings are helpful in the general population because of risk associated with doing procedures and unnecessary treatment leading to higher healthcare costs. A recent study from Poland, Norway, and Sweden showing a relatively similar risk of death from colorectal cancer between screened and unscreened populations highlights this dilemma.

We are joined by Dr. Audrey Calderwood, a gastroenterologist at Dartmouth in Lebanon. She is the director of the Comprehensive Gastroenterology Center and Associate Professor of Medicine at Geisel School of Medicine at Dartmouth and the Dartmouth Institute for Health and Policy and Clinical Practice. Her passions from both a clinical and research perspective is colorectal cancer prevention. She will walk us through some of the higlights of the study which we hope will help our listeners make an informed decision.
