Presenting stool testing as the default option for colorectal cancer screening: results of a randomized trial. [Conference abstract. The 36th Annual Meeting of the Society for Medical Decision Making.] Med Decis Making. Jan 2015;35: E39.https://hdl.handle.net/1805/7073Individuals eligible for colorectal cancer (CRC) screening can choose from multiple approved tests, including colonoscopy and stool testing.
