How can colon cancer be detected

Examination 1: transluminal examination: a special fiber ultrasonic endoscope was used to fill water between the ultrasonic sensor and the intestinal wall. A special water bag was wrapped around the ultrasonic sensor, or a water bag was wrapped to enter the intestinal cavity, and then water was injected to make the sensor measure the water resistance. The measured image showed five layers of the intestinal wall, namely mucosal layer, muscularis mucosae, submucosa, muscularis propria and serosa layer. This is one of the ways to check for colon cancer.

Examination 2: transluminal examination: a special fiber-optic ultrasonic endoscope was used to fill water between the ultrasonic sensor and the intestinal wall. A special water bag was wrapped around the ultrasonic sensor, or an air bag was wrapped into the intestinal cavity, and then water was injected to make the sensor measure the water resistance. The measured image showed five layers of the intestinal wall, namely, the mucosal layer, the muscularis mucosae, the submucosa, the muscularis propria and the serosa layer. This is one of the ways to check for colon cancer.

The third examination: transabdominal examination: direct examination of the location and size of the primary intestinal mass and its relationship with surrounding tissues; examination of metastatic lesions: including retroperitoneal lymph nodes, mesenteric root lymph nodes, metastatic nodules or masses, whether there are metastatic nodules in the pelvic cavity; whether there are space occupying solid masses in the liver. This kind of colon cancer test is more common.
