Fecal Immunochemical Test (FIT Test): Expert Guide

What is the Fecal Immunochemical Test (FIT Test)?

The Fecal Immunochemical Test (FIT) is a highly accurate, non-invasive screening tool designed to detect hidden (occult) blood in the stool—a potential early sign of colorectal cancer or precancerous polyp. FIT uses antibodies to specifically detect human blood from the lower intestines, making it more reliable and less prone to false positives than older stool tests135.
