âDeaths from colorectal cancer have been going down over the past 10 years, and probably 50 percent of that reduction is due to screening.â. Guidelines say that at age 50, everyone should consider having a screening test for colon cancer. (About 90 percent of new cases and 95 percent of colon cancer deaths occur after age 50.) Screening are a test for blood in the stool, repeated annually; an exam with a thin, flexible tube called a sigmoidoscope every five years; or a colonoscopy every 10 years.
Certain factors increase your risk for colorectal cancer and may call for earlier or more frequent screening. People with a close relative diagnosed with colorectal cancer before age 60 should begin screening at age 40 -- or 10 years earlier than the age the relative developed cancer.he American College of Gastroenterology further advises that African-Americans begin screening at age 45 due to increased risk. Colonoscopy allows visualization of the rectum and the entire length of the colon and should be repeated every 10 years.
