Ontario Lowers Colorectal Cancer Screening Age to 45

Abstract:

Ontario will lower colorectal cancer screening from age 50 to 45 starting July 1 due to rising cases in younger adults. Early screening using at-home FIT tests aims to detect cancer sooner and reduce deaths. Experts call it a major step, urging other provinces to follow as diagnoses increase.
