"Patients in general, want to avoid colonoscopy both because of the procedure itself and the bowel preparation necessary. Two years ago a blood test became available to we physicians in Toronto which greatly facilitates the understanding of the potential for cancer of the colon and the advice we give to our patients when screening for colorectal cancer. ColonSentry is now incorporated into the blood draw associated with an annual physical, when appropriate."

It provides actionable information on the patient 's current risk for having the disease and helps facilitate decision making regarding next steps . It is also useful for colonoscopy-compliant patients as an interval monitoring solution. "
