Aasma Shauka, MD, MPH, New York University, New York, NY, discusses the promising nature of non-invasive tests for colorectal cancer screening. She highlights that the widespread adoption of these tests will depend on the results of studies, particularly in terms of sensitivity for detecting colon cancers and precursor lesions like adenomas. Factors such as availability, convenience, and cost will also play a crucial role in determining adoption. Dr Shaukat notes the high interest, particularly among younger individuals, in non-invasive screening options for colon cancer. This interview took place at the 2024 ASCO Gastrointestinal (GI) Cancers Symposium in San Francisco, CA.
