Abstract:
Comparison of a 3-hole-version (HEMDETECT) with the standard 2-hole HAEMOCCULT guajac-test for fecal occult blood revealed a 4.2% positivity rate for HEMDETECT versa 3.4% for HAEMOCCULT. The higher sensitivity of HEMDETECT was accompanied with an increased detection rate of colorectal neoplasias.
