Stool Sample

A Stool Sample test involves collecting and analyzing a stool (feces) sample to diagnose and monitor various gastrointestinal conditions. This test can detect the presence of blood, parasites, bacteria, and abnormal cells, providing valuable insights into digestive function. It is commonly used to diagnose infections, inflammatory bowel disease, and colorectal cancer. The sample is analyzed in a laboratory to guide appropriate treatment and management.

Regular stool tests are important for early detection of gastrointestinal issues and effective health management, with testing typically recommended as needed based on symptoms or for routine screening.
