Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

* To determine the prevalence of colonic neoplasm in patients who had previously undergone screening colonoscopy
* To determine the optimal time interval for re-screening in average risk individuals
* To determine potential baseline characteristics that predicts adenoma recurrence

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the second commonest cancer in Hong Kong, and tends to be increasing. Screening for colorectal cancer can reduce the cancer incidence and mortality by detecting early lesions. However, the best interval for a follow up colonoscopy, particularly for those with normal baseline colonoscopy, remains largely unknown.

This study aim to determine the prevalence of colonic neoplasm in average-risk patients who had previously undergone screening colonoscopy and the optimal time interval for re-screening.
