The material was prepared by the editors of Non Nocere magazine based on the transcripts of the live broadcast "A Conversation about Colonoscopy" as part of the GASTRO CLUB project.

The special guest of the program is Victor Vladimirovich Veselov, M.D., Chief Researcher of the Department of Endoscopic Diagnostics and Surgery at the A.N. Rykhov Scientific and Research Center for Coloproctology, Professor of the Department of Endoscopy at the Russian Medical Academy of Postgraduate Education.

We continue our series of publications on a very important and difficult topic - the topic of oncological care. What therapists and general practitioners should pay attention to in the first place, when to prescribe the examination and how to convince the patient to undergo it. The main purpose of this article is to popularize colonoscopy as the main method of diagnosing diseases of the colon and prevention of colorectal cancer.
