BowelScreen Australia

Bowel Cancer Australia recommends participating in screening appropriate to your personal level of risk.

For people at average risk of bowel cancer and without symptoms, Australian medical guidelines recommend screening using a faecal immunochemical test (FIT) every 2 years between ages 45-74.

The guidelines state a healthcare professional could consider offering a faecal immunochemical test every 2 years to people aged 40-44 who request screening, after being fully informed of the benefits and possible harms of testing.

Similarly, the guidelines state a healthcare professional could consider offering a faecal immunochemical test every 2 years to people aged 75-85 who are fit, well and healthy and request screening, after being fully informed of the benefits and potential harms of testing.

The Australian designed and manufactured test and accredited pathology services are provided by Enterix Australia.

Please note to receive your BowelScreen Australia screening kit, your details will be sent to Enterix Australia pathology service and they will mail it to you.
