Colorectal cancer doesn't affect only older adults; more and more people under 50 are being diagnosed, often too late.

#EUNewsline #CRC

A colonoscopy uses a tiny camera on a long, flexible tube to examine the entire length of the large bowel (colon) and is the most thorough way to check for disease.
It typically takes 15–30 minutes to examine the entire large bowel.

#ECCAM2026

Most countries start colorectal cancer screening with a simple home test: the Faecal Immunochemical Test (FIT).
FIT checks for hidden blood in stool - an early sign of polyps or colorectal cancer.
Take the test when you’re invited, even when you feel perfectly well. #ECCAM2026

All adults aged 50 to 74 (the exact age range varies across Europe depending on the country and the type of test).

CRC often develops without symptoms. That’s why real stories matter.
