Endoscopy

Bowel cancer is one of the most common cancers in Australia and one of the most preventable. The difference between a routine screening test and a preventable death is often a single well-timed colonoscopy. This is a clear, evidence-based guide to who should be screened, with what test, and how often — from average risk through to strong family history, previous polyps, and inflammatory bowel disease.
