Add to ORKGONE OF THE MOST EFFEC-tive tools to identify indi-viduals at increased risk ofcancer is to ascertain their family history. For example, having 1 or more close relatives with colorectal cancer increases risk from 2-fold to 6-fold.1-3 Individuals at increased risk of colorectal, breast, or prostate can-cer due to family history are recom-mended to begin screening for these cancers earlier and in some cases using more sensitive methods than average-risk individuals. Those with family his-tories suggestive of rare hereditary can-cer syndromes that confermuch higher risks may require even more intense screening or prevention regimens.
