Introduction Approximately 42,000 new cases of colorectal cancer (CRC) are diagnosed annually in the United Kingdom with 16,800 deaths. Evidence suggests that quantitative fecal immunochemical tests (FIT) a good predictor CRC risk symptomatic patients presenting to primary care. We aimed assess cost-effectiveness FIT this setting, considering capacity constraints and waiting times for subsequent colonoscopy. Methods compared two diagnostic strategies, at various thresholds, model: (i) all...
