01 · Colorectal cancer
Understanding the condition
Colorectal cancer starts in the colon or rectum. Blood in the stool or persistent bowel changes need medical assessment; there can be several causes.
How treatment planning starts
Colonoscopy and biopsy usually clarify the diagnosis. Further tests assess spread; whether the tumour is in the colon or rectum affects the plan.
Treatment options to discuss with a doctor
Treatment may include surgery and medicines. Radiotherapy may be used for rectal cancer. Selection depends on stage and tumour characteristics.
This is an overview, not a prescription. Availability at Artemis and suitability for your case must be confirmed with the clinic.
IMROMED organisational consultation is free
Records to prepare
Colonoscopy, biopsy, CT or MRI results and previous treatment records, if available.
Do not arrange extra tests solely for this list. Confirm the need with your treating doctor first. A complete set is not required for the first conversation.

We help organise an enquiry to this multidisciplinary hospital in India. The clinic confirms treatment options and necessary assessment after reviewing your case.
About the hospital and supportQuestions before your enquiry
Are colon and rectal cancers treated in the same way?
Not always. Tumour location affects the sequence of treatments. A specialist first needs to review reports and clarify the stage.
How much do treatment and travel cost?
The clinic prepares a preliminary estimate for your case. Flights, accommodation and support services are discussed separately. Before payment, clarify included services, the recipient and terms. There is no single price for all patients.
Can I call before all my records are ready?
Yes. The first conversation helps us understand your enquiry and clarify the records needed. Before sharing medical files, agree a private channel, purpose and recipient. The coordinator discusses arrangements, not a diagnosis.
