Not a recognized: Test. Did a doctor order this test, or did you get it on your own? For approved tests to detect colon cancer see the site given below. It would help to see your doctor with the test results so that s/he may check out if it is even a valid test. http://www.cancer.gov/cancertopics/factsheet/detection/colorectal-screening.
