Colorectal cancer screening
The risk of colorectal cancer increases from the age of 50. That said, if done early enough, the Colotest, a screening test, works very well and allows the risk to be detected early enough to be treated with very high cure rates.
That's why the Colotest is now free for men and women aged 50 to 74 and can be easily done at home. If you do not automatically receive your Colotest Kit in your mailbox, it can be easily ordered or you can request it at any Brussels pharmacy.
You will find below all the necessary information to obtain and use it.
Attention : Results will only be sent electronically starting January 1, 2024. You can find your result at the following address: https://www.masante.belgique.be/ .
The Colotest is available for Brussels residents.
