Colorectal Cancer Screening Evidence-Based Programs Listing

The Community Preventive Services Task Force (CPSTF) recommends interventions that use small media based on strong evidence of their effectiveness in increasing colorectal cancer screening by fecal occult blood test (FOBT). The CPSTF finds insufficient evidence to determine the effectiveness of using small media to increase colorectal cancer screening by flexible sigmoidoscopy, colonoscopy, or double contrast barium enema because no studies evaluating these screening procedures were identified.
