Subjects view: Computer-based presentation regarding colorectal cancer (CRC) and screening for CRC with colonoscopy, sigmoidoscopy, or stool testing. Includes a video from the American Cancer Society. Computer-based presentation providing quantitative information regarding (a) the lifetime average probability of getting CRC or dying from it, (b) the reduction in mortality provided by undergoing regular screening with colonoscopy, and (c) the reduction in mortality provided by undergoing regular screening with fecal immunochemical testing (FIT)
Subjects view: Computer-based presentation regarding colorectal cancer (CRC) and screening for CRC with colonoscopy, sigmoidoscopy, or stool testing. Includes a video from the American Cancer Society. Computer-based presentation that encourages subjects who are unwilling to undergo colonoscopy or are unsure about whether to undergo screening to get tested with Fecal Immunochemical Testing (FIT).
