The assessment for this unit is to write a lit review. This is how I'm going.

Lit Review: Flexible Sigmoidoscopy as a screening test for CRC
Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the most common internal cancer in Australia. Close to 5% of Australians will develop the disease, and of those, about half will die from it. However, it is known that CRC develops in a stage-wise method, and that early detection of the disease can be life-saving. Furthermore, detection and removal of high-risk polyps can decrease the risk of CRC by up to 90% in those screened. Accordingly, there has been considerable research into the evaluation of potential tests that could be used to screen a population and detect CRC at an early and curable stage. Tests currently under consideration include faecal occult blood tests, flexible sigmoidoscopy, and colonoscopy.
