(20 Tests)
The QuickVue iFOB (immunochemical Fecal Occult Blood) test is an immunochemical device intended for the qualitative detection of fecal occult blood by laboratories or physicians offices. It is useful in determining gastrointestinal (GI) bleeding. (FDA 510K#: K021423)
QuickVue iFOB Test:
The QuickVue iFOB test is an FDA-cleared and CLIA-waived rapid immunochemical diagnostic tool intended to detect the presence of blood in stool specimens. Blood in the stool is an indication of a number of gastrointestinal disorders, including colorectal cancer.
Screening may prevent many cases of colorectal cancer because most colorectal cancers develop from adenomatous polyps. Polyps are noncancerous growths in the colon and rectum. Detecting polyps through screening and removing them may actually prevent cancer from occurring. Furthermore, being screened at the recommended frequencies improves the chances that colorectal cancers will be detected at an earlier stage.
