Erratum:

"Colorectal Cancer Screening for Persons at Average Risk" by Anderson et al. [J Natl Cancer Inst 2002;94:1126–33 (Issue 15)]. On page 1127, the word "not" should be deleted from the last sentence of the first paragraph in the section entitled "Flexible sigmoidoscopy (FS)." The sentence should read "Compared with the control group, the subjects who were offered initial FS endoscopic screening followed by colonoscopy for positive results demonstrated an 80% reduction in CRC incidence (relative risk = 0.2, 95% confidence interval = 0.03 to 0.95; P = .02) (39)." The authors regret the error.
