I'm a primary care physician trying to navigate the updated colorectal cancer screening guidelines with my patients, particularly those in their mid-40s who are now eligible. The conversation is complicated by the various options—colonoscopy, FIT tests, Cologuard—each with different intervals, accuracy, and preparation burdens. For other clinicians, how are you presenting these choices to patients to facilitate shared decision-making, and what factors do you emphasize to help a patient choose between a highly sensitive invasive test and a less invasive but more frequent screening method?
