Metric Options: CountsSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Book Chapter Description
Endoscopy is the gold standard for detection of early cancer in the gastrointestinal tract. For normal-risk asymptomatic persons, endoscopic screening of the upper and lower gastrointestinal tract is recommended in Japan starting at the age of 40 years. In many Western countries, colonoscopy only is approved for cancer screening starting at the age of 50 years. As rationale serves that colonoscopic screening with resection of all neoplastic lesions had strongly reduced the incidence of colorectal cancer during subsequent follow-up for 10 years. High-risk groups are subject to different, more frequent endoscopic surveillance programs which we summarize for esophageal, gastric, and colorectal cancer. We explain the preparation and procedural steps of screening colonoscopy and esophago-/gastroscopy including benchmark criteria for quality of endoscopic screening.
