Catch Cancer Early
A colonoscopy is a diagnostic procedure where a doctor examines your large intestine for early signs of cancer. It is a minimally invasive operation, meaning the surgeon makes a few small cuts instead of one large one.
Colonoscopies aren’t just diagnostic surgeries. Surgeons will prevent cancer by removing precancerous polyps. Colorectal cancer is the second leading cause of cancer-related deaths. Get a colonoscopy at age 45 and catch the disease when it’s at its most treatable.
Learn about your colorectal cancer screening options.
If you’ve developed colorectal cancer, you have treatment options. Your cancer specialist will work with you to decide which option best meets your treatment needs. Ask your doctor if colorectal surgery is your best choice.
