The conversion factor for predicting adenoma detection rate from polyp detection rate varies according to colonoscopy indication and patient sex

The adenoma detection rate (ADR) is the primary quality indicator for colonoscopies. The polyp detection rate (PDR) is available from administrative data and does not depend on histology verification. The correlation between PDR and ADR and the ADR/PDR conversion factor in preventive colonoscopies were evaluated. In the prospective study, asymptomatic individuals aged 45–75 years with preventive colonoscopy in 2012–2016 were included. Spearman’s...
