Target Audience

This online educational enduring material is designed for physicians.  We also invite clinical staff to take the course. Its purpose is to provide for the continuous educational need of the physicians to become more knowledgeable about the diseases in internal medicine subspecialties and become more efficient in the evaluation and management of concerns unique to their patients. 

Learning Objectives

At the end of this online enduring material, participants should be able to:

  • Discuss how colorectal cancer is presenting at younger ages and how this has led to recent guidelines recommending screening initiation at age 45 for average risk patients
  • Recognize and differentiate between the different colorectal cancer screening modalities and gain knowledge of how to convince our patients
  • Identify that positive CRC screening testing other than colonoscope will necessitate diagnostic colonoscopy (typically within 1 year)
