FAQs

What is Calprotectin and why is it tested?

Calprotectin is a protein found in stool that indicates inflammation in the intestines. Elevated levels may suggest inflammatory bowel diseases like Crohn’s or ulcerative colitis.

What does a QFIT test detect?

QFIT (Quantitative Faecal Immunochemical Test) detects hidden (occult) blood in the stool, which can be an early sign of bowel disease, including colorectal cancer or polyps.

Is this test suitable for irritable bowel syndrome (IBS)?

Yes, this test helps distinguish between IBS and more serious inflammatory or infectious bowel conditions, offering a clearer diagnostic direction.

Do I need to provide both stool and blood samples?

Yes. This test combines stool testing for markers like Calprotectin, QFIT, and H. pylori antigen with blood testing for liver enzymes and Full Blood Count.

How is this different from a standard digestive health screen?

It goes beyond basic digestion checks to include inflammation, immune markers, blood loss, and infection, giving a more complete picture of gut function and systemic impact.
