Colon cancer: Better chances of recovery through regular screening. Thanks to new procedures, 95 percent of lesions can now be detected and removed during a colonoscopy.

The only and best way to detect possible cancer cells or precursors is through a colonoscope. Every year around 27,000 women and 38,000 men in Germany develop colon cancer. If the cancer is detected early, there is a good chance that the cancer can be treated. With appropriate colon cancer prevention, a malignant disease that spreads can even be prevented.
