It might be time for a new hashtag: #ScreenOnTimeAt45. Guidelines recommend #colorectalcancer screening at age 45 in average-risk individuals but screening rates in younger individuals are low. On-Time screening is key #colorectalcancerawarenessmonth ACG CU Anschutz Medical Campus

#ScreenOnTimeAt45 for those average-risk for #colorectalcancer. Maintain healthy diet/lifestyle. Act early on concerning symptoms. Know your #cancer family history because some may need even earlier screening. spr.ly/60160QJNK #ColorectalCancerAwarenessMonth Katie Couric
