01:56 How is Colon Cancer Diagnosed?
Colonoscopy is used to analyze the entire intestine.
A biopsy can be taken if necessary.
Once the type of cancer is identified, it is staged using a CT scan or PET scan.
This also helps identify its spread.
03:08 Treatment of Colon Cancer
If it has not spread, the first treatment is surgery.
If colon cancer has metastasized in one or two places in the liver, surgery is an option.
In other cases, chemotherapy is given to the patient.
In some cases, a combination of chemotherapy and immunotherapy can be helpful.
If the cancer has spread, with a proper combination of immunotherapy, targeted therapy, and chemotherapy, the patient can live for another 3 to 4 years.
