Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND & AIMS: The gold standard for screening for colorectal carcinoma is colonoscopy. The aim of this study was to compare endoscopic results with those obtained using the noninvasive screening test of K-ras determination in the stool in a large population of patients undergoing colonoscopy. METHODS: Two hundred thirty consecutive patients were studied by K-ras amplification on stool-derived DNA using...
