Question concerning a colon cancer screening, can you help?

My father who's 50 is going in a couple of days to do screening for colon cancer. My mom is concerned that the risks outweigh the benefits. She said she heard from someone that theres a chance of them rupturing something while conducting the screening. My question is wether this type of screening runs big risks or relatively small risks. I dont know the exact name for the procedure.
