Relax…now you can conqueryour fears with the latest technology available, the CT Virtual Colonoscopy.
Colorectal cancer is the third leading cancer amongAmerican men and women and accounts forover 50,000 deaths every year.
Most colorectal cancer deaths are thoughtto be preventable with improvements to nutrition, physical activity and early detectionthrough routine screenings.
But yet people seem resistant to get routinelyscreened due mainly to the time consumingand stressful bowel preparation with a traditionaloptical colonoscopy.
Optical colonoscopy is not always recommended for patients who use blood thinners or have trouble with sedation. Ask your doctor if a CT Virtual Colonoscopy at Russell Regional Hospital is right for you.
