Early Detection Raises the Chances of Finding a Cure
There is one reality that simply cannot be ignored in the medical world, the earlier a condition can be diagnosed, the greater the chances are that it can be cured. While not all diseases can be cured at the moment, they can be treated in such a way as to provide a better quality of life over time. No matter what disease we are talking about, the key lies in detecting it as early as is humanly possible.
Over the last couple of decades, the advancements in technology have thrived in the medical community. It started with the advent of x-ray technology at the turn of the twentieth century which developed over the next century to become a very versatile and useful diagnostic tool, although it had some major limitations in detecting what the doctors needed to see.
The constant need to be able to see more and thus provide better diagnoses of patient’s medical conditions led to the development of technologies such as MRI or Magnetic Resonance Imaging and CAT or Computerized Axial Tomography that are capable of producing amazingly clear images inside the human body. These technologies can see both soft and hard tissues, organs and bones, thus when used properly, they allow the doctor to see virtual images of anything without the need for invasive procedures.
Colon cancer is a leading cause of cancer-related death in the United States. Colon cancer ranks high for many reasons, only 1 in 5 people who are told by their Doctors to get a colonoscopy even do it because of the discomfort and there are other people with medical conditions that contraindicate sedation. Conventional Colonoscopy may cause an injury to the colon (tear or perforation), and the doctor is unable to see the entire colon in one out of ten patients. Usually sedation is required to make the exam bearable and patients cannot resume normal activities.
The Virtual Colonoscopy is a safe and effective method of detecting colorectal polyps and cancers at the earliest stages possible; colon cancer is prevented by discovering and removing polyps. The procedure is fast (15 minutes), accurate (sees the entire colon), safe (no sedation,
no scope, no risk of perforation) and easy (no hospital stay allowing the return to work/activities immediately.
Thousands die each year for COLON CANCER, even though there is a cure. Early detection is the cure, with 98% surviving if the cancer is caught early.
