Disease characteristics

       Colorectal cancer is a collective term for colon cancer and rectum cancer. Abnormal tissue growths on the surface of the intestinal mucosa are called polyps, among which adenomatous polyps may develop into colorectal cancer over a period of about 5 to 10 years. Early screening can help identify high-risk individuals in a timely manner and detect colorectal cancer at an early stage when treatment is most effective, and colonoscopic removal of adenomas can prevent 75% of colorectal cancers.
