The Numbers Speak for Themselves

Adenoma Detection Rate

An adenoma is a benign (non-cancerous) tumor that can progress to become malignant (cancerous). The purpose of removing adenomas is to prevent colon cancer. The adenoma detection rate (ADR) is the most important quality indicator, and it describes the percentage of patients in whom adenomatous polyps are identified by the physician performing the colonoscopy. The higher the percentage, the better the physician is at identifying and removing adenomas.

Why does this matter?

The higher the center’s physician’s ADR, the more likely it will be that adenomas can be identified and removed, reducing your risk for colon cancer.

 

 

Withdrawal Time

The withdrawal time is the time it takes to remove the scope from the colon when no polyps are found. The goal is at least 6 minutes.

Why does this matter?

You want the physician to do a thorough exam. Increasing the amount of time viewing the colon during withdrawal has been shown to increase the number of pre-cancerous polyps found, thus reducing a patient’s risk of cancer.
