  schema:description "After an operation to cure bowel cancer, you will usually have regular blood tests (CEA) and CT scans for the first 3 years, and a colonoscopy about a year after surgery. The aim is to find a return early enough to operate again. How often you are tested differs between countries, and the large trials found that testing more often does not, on average, help people live longer."@en ;
