Colorectal cancer ranks first in cancer incidence when men and women are combined, making it one of the most representative lifestyle-related cancers. In the early stages there are almost no noticeable symptoms; as the disease advances, signs such as blood in the stool, abdominal pain, and anemia may appear. In addition to fecal occult blood testing, it is important to use tumor markers (CEA and CA19-9), abdominal CT, and whole-body PET imaging to enable early detection and to determine whether distant metastasis is present.
