Abstract: The incidence of colorectal cancer has shown an upward trend in China. Colorectal cancer turns to be a great threat to people's health，and also brings serious negative socio-economic impacts. The screening for colorectal cancer using effective strategies has been proven efficacious for reducing colorectal cancer burden in many countries. In China，due to incomplete coverage of colorectal cancer screening programs implemented using non-uniform strategies，there is a need to develop a comprehensive colorectal cancer screening system used throughout the country. We overviewed colorectal cancer screening researches at home and abroad，and discussed the common screening strategies based on the reviewing of the latest guidelines and consensuses on colorectal cancer screening，then predicted the prospects of colorectal cancer screening in China，with a view to assisting the development of colorectal cancer screening strategies with Chinese characteristics.
