If the exam is normal, a colonoscopy should be repeated every 10 years up to the age of 75. If the test detects precancerous polyps, the physician will recommend that colonoscopies be repeated more frequently.
The purpose of screening colonoscopy is to detect and remove early cancerous or precancerous lesions. During the outpatient procedure, a doctor uses a scope to examine the inside of the large intestine. The American Cancer Society recommends that most people undergo colon cancer screening beginning at the age of 50.
