Plain-language summary

Effective colorectal cancer (CRC) screening relies on early identification and removal of both polypoid and non-polypoid lesions with neoplastic potential. The investigators hypothesize that an intensive training program designed to enhance both recognition and classification of lesions with neoplastic potential, will result in an increase in non-polypoid adenoma detection in addition to and independent of an increase in overall adenoma detection rates.
