Gastroenterology Podcast February 2012: Next-Generation Stool DNA Test Accurately Detects Colorectal Cancer and Large Adenomas

Technical advances have led to stool DNA (sDNA) tests that might accurately detect neoplasms on both sides of the colorectum. A study in the February issue of Gastroenterology assessed colorectal neoplasm detection by a next-generation sDNA test and effects of covariates on test performance. Dr. Kuemmerle speaks to first author Dr. David A. Ahlquist of the Mayo Clinic, Rochester, MN; Plus, a rundown of top stories from this month's issue of GI and Hepatology News.
