Colon Cancer Screening

Colon cancer screening is a preventive healthcare practice aimed at detecting colorectal cancer or precancerous growths in the colon and rectum. It involves various methods, including colonoscopy, sigmoidoscopy, fecal occult blood tests, and stool DNA tests, to identify abnormalities early when they are more treatable. Regular screening is essential for early detection and improved outcomes in the fight against colon cancer. The specific screening method and frequency may vary based on individual risk factors and medical guidelines.
