Plasma microRNAs : novel markers for the detection of colonic polyps and their progression to colorectal cancer
Introduction: Bowel cancer screening programme (BCSP) subjects aged 55 are screened by bowel scope sigmoidoscopy, aged 60-75 by faecal occult blood testing (FOBt - positive subjects undergo colonoscopy). Whilst effective, FOBt lacks high sensitivity, specificity and accuracy, >90% sigmoidoscopies...
