| dc.description.abstract | Colonoscopy is the cornerstone of colorectal cancer screening programs. There is significant variability in the quality of colonoscopy between endoscopists. Colonoscopy quality assessment tracks various metrics in order to improve the effectiveness of colonoscopy, aiming at reducing the incidence and mortality from colorectal cancer. Adenoma detection rate is the prime metric, as it is associated with the risk of interval cancers. Implementing processes to measure and improve the adenoma detection rate is essential to improve the quality of colonoscopy. | en_US |
