About
Many diseases can cause hidden blood in the faeces. This is also known as faecal occult blood (FOB), human occult blood or human haemoglobin.
In the early stages, gastrointestinal problems such as colon cancer, ulcers, polyps, colitis, diverticulitis and fissures may not show any visible symptoms. Typically, occult blood is passed in such small amounts that it can be detected only through the chemicals used in a FOB test. When detected early, 9 out of 10 cases of bowel cancer can be treated successfully.
