La ricerca di sangue occulto nelle feci rappresenta un importante test di screening per il tumore del colon-retto, consigliabile con cadenza annuale o biennale a partire dai 45/50 anni di età. Come tutte le metodiche di screening, è bene sottolineare che la ricerca di sangue occulto nelle feci NON ha significato diagnostico, ma identifica semplicemente le persone a rischio per questa patologia e per i polipi intestinali (che si possono asportare per impedirne l’eventuale trasformazione in tumore maligno). Pertanto, nel caso fossero rinvenute tracce di sangue nelle feci del paziente, questo dev’essere indirizzato verso accertamenti diagnostici più accurati.

FOBT Test FAQs

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.

Avoid Vit C supplements, red meat (beef, lamb, pork), NSAIDs (Aspirin, Ibuprofen) drugs, and spicy food the day before the test, as these can alter results.
