Stool Occult Blood

The Stool occult blood test (Stool OBT) looks for the presence of microscopic blood in the feces, which may be a sign of a problem in your digestive system.

The fecal occult blood test requires the collection of 3 small stool samples. Usually the samples are a bit of stool collected on the end of an applicator. The stool samples should be taken one day apart, because colon cancers may bleed from time to time, rather than consistently.

You can purchase fecal occult blood test kits at the pharmacy to perform the test at home, or your doctor may give you the home test during one of your appointments. These tests provide specific instructions, and most offer a toll-free number to call if you have questions.

The stool samples are collected in a clean container and evaluated by detecting color changes on a test card, or by sending the samples, in a special container and envelope, directly to the doctor’s office for analysis. Your doctor may examine the samples with a microscope or with chemical tests.
