Core Tip	There is a basic difference in incitements to attend for screening when you are healthy and for routine clinics when you are ill. This article points out logical mechanisms which may set standards for screening higher than for routine clinics, but this may prove to be of benefit for clinical services and patients in the long run. This is highlighted by sessile serrated polyps which were previously classified as innocuous hyperplastic polyps. Recent guidelines now recommend polypectomy of these lesions for cancer prevention, but we do not know the benefit gained - only the increased risk of perforation by polypectomy.
