Researchers want to understand how common colorectal cancer and precancerous polyps are in people who have had a specific type of blood infection caused by gut bacteria. You would swallow a small capsule with a camera that takes pictures as it moves through your colon — a less invasive way to screen for cancer than a traditional colonoscopy.
Some gut bacteria in the bloodstream may be linked to a higher risk of colorectal cancer. This study aims to find out how often cancer is actually present in patients with these infections, which could help doctors decide who needs screening and when.

About 4–8 weeks after you are discharged from the hospital, you will visit the research center to undergo colon capsule endoscopy. You will first prepare your colon by following a bowel preparation regimen, then swallow a small capsule containing a camera. The capsule travels naturally through your digestive system over several hours, taking pictures of your colon and rectum, which doctors review to look for signs of cancer or precancerous polyps.
