What is the Fluid for Occult Blood test?

Fluid for Occult Blood, commonly known as a fecal occult blood test (FOBT), is a stool test for occult blood that looks for blood in stool that is not visible to the naked eye. Blood in the stool indicates bleeding in the digestive tract, which could indicate problems such as polyps, ulcers, or colon cancer.

The feces occult blood test can only detect blood presence or absence, not cause. This is the most common stool test since it is simple, affordable, and easy. An FOBT is a colorectal cancer screening test that can help detect the disease early when therapy is most successful.

For a colonoscopy to pinpoint the exact location of the bleeding, you need to have a positive test result.
