Abstract: . . .  Colorectal cancers can almost always be cured if detected early. Therefore, it is important for all adults age 50 and older (at average risk) to follow the American Cancer Society's screening guidelines. Individuals are considered at higher risk if there is: a family history of colorectal cancer or adenomatous polyps in a first-degree 22 Colon and Rectum  . . .
