Description: This test is intended only for the detection of human hemoglobin in fecal specimens. This test is designed for preliminary screening. A positive result should be followed up with additional diagnostic procedures, such as colonoscopy or sigmoidoscopy, to determine the exact cause and source of the occult blood in the feces.

*Please note: The result turn around time is an estimate only and not guaranteed. The reference lab may need additional time due to conditions with the weather, confirmation or repeat testing, or equipment maintenance and other reasons out of our control.
