Consiste nell’analisi di un campione fecale raccolto dal paziente. Tale esame comprende valutazioni macroscopiche (aspetto, colore, odore, consistenza), chimiche (pH, acidi grassi, sangue ed altri contenuti) e microbiologiche (coprocoltura e ricerca di parassiti). L’esame delle feci può quindi rivelarsi di grande aiuto nella diagnosi di alcune infezioni e malattie che interessano l’intestino, il fegato o il pancreas. Eventuali anomalie possono comunque essere prodotte semplicemente da quanto mangiato o da farmaci assunti.

FOBT Test FAQs

FOBT checks the stool sample for occult bleeding (bleeding from gastrointestinal parts that end up in the stool). Bleeding can be caused by haemorrhoids, anal fissures, polyps, ulcerative colitis, Crohn's Disease, and colorectal cancer.

It is intensely used for diagnosing colorectal cancer before the appearance of symptoms. It is also used to help find the cause of anaemia. It can distinguish between irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), which usually doesn't cause bleeding, and inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), which is likely to cause bleeding.

The provider will provide you with the kit for sample collection. The instructions for the equipment must be followed. The sample, once collected, must be stored in a prelabelled container with patient details, sealed and sent to the laboratory. The test can be reordered if the sample is inconclusive.
