Gastrointestinal (GI) Cancers: Symptoms, Risk Factors & Early Detection

Gastrointestinal cancers (often called GI cancers) are cancers that begin in the digestive system. These include the oesophagus, stomach, liver, pancreas, small intestine, colon, rectum, and anus. These cancers occur over a variable age spectrum, commonly affecting those over 50, but can strike earlier with risk factors. Early detection of these cancers is possible and is important because, for most, survival rates are higher when diagnosed at an early stage.
