The T1 CRC Working Group aims to perform multicenter multidisciplinairy research. Here, we summarize our current research projects.
The PATCH study aims to validate a previously developed risk model for pedunculated T1 CRC and to train pathologists in the assessment of histopathologic features involved in the model. Principal investigators: M.M. Lacle, L.M.G. Moons, S.G. Elias. Project leader: L. van der Schee

The OPTICAL II-study aims to improve discrimination between non-invasive (benign) neoplasia and early colorectal cancer (T1 CRC) with optical diagnosis, by teaching Dutch endoscopists the OPTICAL prediction model with an e-learning module.

The LIMERIC-study aims to prospectively evaluate the radicality of the resected specimen after limited endoscopy assisted laparoscopic wedge resections (EWR) for the treatment of difficult colon polyps and the related costs and morbidity of the procedure.
