Clinical exome sequencing vs. usual care for hereditary colorectal cancer diagnosis: a pilot comparative effectiveness study.
The purpose of this study was to evaluate clinical exome sequencing (CES) compared to usual care (UC) in the diagnostic work-up of inherited colorectal cancer/polyposis (CRCP) in a randomized controlled trial (RCT). The investigators indicate that their results suggest that CES provides similar clinical benefits to multi-gene panels in the diagnosis of hereditary CRCP.

Impact of a clinical decision support system on guideline adherence of surveillance recommendations for colonoscopy after polypectomy.
The goal of this study was to characterize guideline adherence of surveillance recommendations after implementation of an electronic medical record (EMR)-based Colonoscopy Pathology Reporting and Clinical Decision Support System (CoRS). Results showed that an EMR-based CoRS was widely used and significantly improved guideline adherence of surveillance recommendations.
