Or are you afraid of finding out you HAVE it?
In either case, the Gastrointestinal Institute can ease your fears with one simple picture. Our new state-of-the-art Virtual Colonoscopy is non-invasive, accurate, and now available here in Bloomington-Normal.
Virtual Colonoscopy uses a CT scanner and computer software to look inside the body without having to insert a long tube (Conventional Colonoscopy) into the colon.
In short, we now have a way to take a picture of your colon, to see where polyps and problems may exist. And we have the means to take care of them.
A picture is worth a thousand words. It can also avert a thousand worries. And save your life.
If you are over 50 and/or have a family history of colon cancer, we urge you to get screened - especially if you have NO symptoms. That's when one picture will show that you are either healthy or in the early stages of an affliction, when it is most curable.
March is Colorectal Cancer Awareness Month. There has never been a more urgent time to get screened - or to schedule a screening for a loved one.
With Virtual Colonoscopy from GI, seeing is not only believing, seeing is relieving.
