Screening Tests for Colon Cancer | The Different Options and Advantages

What are the testing options for colon cancer? Montefiore Einstein’s Dr. Carolina Bernabe-Ramirez, MD, Department of Medical Oncology, explains the types of screenings, including virtual colonoscopy, the advantages of each, and the preparation for each test. Knowing your risk and when you should start getting tested can prevent colon cancer and save lives when caught early. With colon cancer on the rise among younger adults, screening is an important part of staying healthy after age 45.
