Colorectal cancer is one of the most common and often fatal cancers in humans, but it has the highest chance of a cure if detected at an early precancerous stage.

Early diagnosis of adenomatous polyps is the main approach for screening and preventing colorectal cancer, and vibration spectroscopy can be used for this purpose.

The prospects of the method and its place in clinical practice are discussed.

Abstract:
Muir-Torre Syndrome (MTS) is associated with multiple visceral malignancies. Initial presentation may be a benign skin tumor mimicking a sebaceous cyst. This case report highlights the importance of early diagnosis, genetic testing, and multidisciplinary screening. A 67-year-old man was diagnosed with MTS following excision of a skin lesion (sebaceoma). He was declined both screening colonoscopy and genetic testing. Subsequently, advanced colon cancer was found following presentation with iron deficiency anemia, which ultimately led to palliation despite successful surgery. MTS can present ins

Multi-cancer blood-based tests may yield clinical benefit by improving compliance to guideline recommended screening with a more patient-friendly modality, and also by detection of early (stage I/II) tumors in cancer types that lack screening tests, yet early intervention can save lives. A single test with clinically meaningful performance which addresses both opportunities has yet to be developed. Methods.

Despite multiple screening techniques, including colonoscopy, flexible sigmoidoscopy, radiological imaging, and fecal occult blood testing, colorectal cancer remains a leading cause of death. As these techniques improve, their sensitivity to detect malignant lesions is increasing; however, detection of precursor lesions remains problematic and has generated a lack of general acceptance for their widespread usage. Early detection by an accurate, noninvasive, cost-effective, simple-to-use screening technique is central to decreasing the incidence and mortality of this disease. Recent advances in
