Purpose

Join us for a webinar focusing on Lower GI Cancer and FIT testing in symptomatic patients. This session will provide essential updates to support earlier cancer diagnosis in primary care and effective patient management. Colorectal cancer is one of the most common cancers in the UK, with early detection significantly improving patient outcomes. The Faecal immunochemical Test is an effective test for the assessment of patients with gastrointestinal symptoms that may be indicative of colorectal cancer, but understanding its proper use and interpretation is vital. This webinar will equip you with the latest knowledge and guidance to enhance your clinical practice and patient care.
