Yes, blood and stool tests are not only just as effective for screening, they are they recommended tests.

No, actually they recommended colorectal screening at 45, which includes blood tests, stool DNA, and stool tests. If those are abnormal, then you go visual.
So basically you don’t need a colonocopy, nor is it recommended, unless something is unusual in the blood/stool or you are high risk.

Turns out they changed the suggestion for that too! Start with blood tests and go from there.
