Announcer: IS COLON CANCER A THING OF THE PAST?

I'M MAURY TOBIN REPORTING FOR THE AMERICAN COLLEGE OF GASTROENTEROLOGY.

THE OVERALL DROP IN THE NUMBER OF DEATHS IN AMERICAN MEN AND WOMEN FROM COLON CANCER IS WELCOME NEWS, BUT EXPERTS WARN THAT NOT ENOUGH AMERICANS ARE GETTING SCREENED.

DR. DAVID JOHNSON, PRESIDENT OF THE AMERICAN COLLEGE OF GASTROENTEROLOGY, EXPLAINS:

Dr. Johnson: The fact that colorectal cancer deaths are down in the United States is a tribute to the efforts of many to promote screening.

But much remains to be done if we're to realize the lifesaving potential from colorectal cancer screening.

Early detection of colorectal cancer, when it's most treatable, directly results in improved survival, exceeding 90 percent when detected at the earliest stage.

Now our message is simple: If you're a man or women over the age of 50, you need to get screened for colon cancer.
