Colon Cancer Screening

Colon Cancer Screening

Colon cancer screening is a process of looking for polyps or cancer in the large intestine (colon) in people who have no symptoms of the disease. Colon polyps are growths on the inner lining of the colon. Some polyps may be turn into cancer over time. Regular colorectal cancer screening is most effective way of preventing colorectal cancer (CRC). The American Cancer Society 2018 guideline for CRC screening recommends that average-risk adults aged 45 years and older undergo regular screening. Colonoscopy is the preferred colorectal cancer screening strategy as it allows detection and removal of polyps.
