Measuring the quality of colorectal cancer screening: the importance of follow-up.
Dis Colon Rectum. 2006; (7): 1002-10

However, relatively little is known about rates of follow-up after abnormal results from initial screening tests. This study examines patterns of colorectal cancer screening and follow-up within the nation's largest integrated health care system: the Veterans Health Administration.
