Why and When is an Occult Blood Test Done?
The Occult Blood test is done to find if there are any serious abnormalities of the colon or rectum. This test becomes significant when the doctor may suspect cancer.
It is done by either of the following methods:
- The faecal immunochemical test (iFOBT or FIT) - detects blood in stools with the help of antibodies.
- The guaiac faecal occult blood test (gFOBT) - traces blood using a particular chemical.
It is a routine test done with a frequency of once a year. However, this test is beneficial in only confirming the presence of blood in the stools but not the cause behind it. For this, the doctor will need to evaluate the patient’s health and order additional tests.
Following are the medical conditions due to which a person can be prescribed an Occult Blood test:
- Colorectal cancer
- Colorectal polyps
- Digestive tract bleeding
- Anal fissures
- Colitis
- Abdominal pain
- Ulcers
- Anaemia
