Alternative diagnoses and demographics associated with a raised quantitative faecal immunochemical test in symptomatic patients
BACKGROUND: The faecal immunochemical test (FIT) has proven utility for colorectal cancer detection in symptomatic patients. However, most patients with a raised faecal haemoglobin (f-Hb) do not have colorectal cancer. We investigated alternative diagnoses and demographics associated with a raised f...
