Colorectal Cancer Screening Guidelines
Huntsman Cancer Institute and Â鶹ѧÉú¾«Æ·°æ recommend you begin screening for colorectal cancer at age 45. A regular screening is the best way to prevent colon cancer.
Screening recommendations differ if you have higher-than-average risk and a family history of colorectal cancer. Talk to your provider about what cancer screenings are right for you. You may need additional screening exams.
Risk factors can increase your chances of colorectal cancer:
- You have a personal or family history of colorectal cancer or colorectal polyps. This risk includes polyps or cancer found in a family member younger than age 45.
- Inflammatory bowel disease, such as ulcerative colitis or Crohn's disease
- A genetic syndrome such as familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP) or hereditary non-polyposis colorectal cancer (Lynch syndrome)
Our team at The Family Cancer Assessment Clinic at Huntsman Cancer Institute can help you find out if genes play a role in your personal or family health history.
