There are many tests used for diagnosing colorectal cancer. Dr. Manoj Dongare may consider these factors when choosing a diagnostic test:

Colonoscopy:A colonoscopy allows the doctor to look inside the entire rectum and colon while a patient is sedated. Biopsy: A biopsy is the removal of a small amount of tissue for examination under a microscope. Blood tests: Because colorectal cancer often bleeds into the large intestine or rectum, people with the disease may become anemic. Computed tomography (CT or CAT) scan: A CT scan takes pictures of the inside of the body using x-rays taken from di?erent angles. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI): An MRI uses magnetic ?elds, not x-rays, to produce detailed images of the body. Ultrasound: An ultrasound uses sound waves to create a picture of the internal organs to ?nd out if cancer has spread. Chest x-ray: An x-ray is a way to create a picture of the structures inside of the body, using a small amount of radiation. An x-ray of the chest can help doctors ?nd out if cancer has spread to the lungs. Positron emission tomography (PET) or PET-CT scan: A PET scan is usually combined with a CT scan (see above), called a PET-CT scan.

This approach provides a chance to be free of cancer over the long term. Chemotherapy: Chemotherapy is the use of drugs to destroy cancer cells, usually by keeping the cancer cells from growing, dividing, and making more cells. Chemotherapy may be given after surgery to eliminate any remaining cancer cells. For some people with rectal cancer, the doctor will give chemotherapy and radiation therapy before surgery to reduce the size of a rectal tumor and reduce the chance of the cancer returning. Radiation Therapy: Radiation therapy is the use of high-energy x-rays to destroy cancer cells. It is commonly used for treating rectal cancer because this kind of tumor tends to recur near where it originally started. A doctor who specializes in giving radiation therapy to treat cancer is called a radiation oncologist.

Targeted therapies: Targeted drug treatments focus on speci?c abnormalities present within cancer cells. By blocking these abnormalities, targeted drug treatments can cause cancer cells to die.
