FAQs
Are there any other screening options besides a colonoscopy?
Aside from colonoscopy, there are other screening options available, including stool-based tests such as ColoGuard and FIT (fecal immunochemical test). These tests are generally recommended every one to three years, depending on the specific test and individual risk factors. However, it's important to note that these tests are not as accurate as colonoscopy and may not detect all cases of colon cancer or precancerous polyps.
