- iFOBT is the least invasive of the various screening tests available for colorectal cancer
- Stool collection for iFOBT is easy for the patient and it can be done in the privacy of their own home
- There is no preparation involved with iFOBT as there is with gFOBT, sigmoidoscopy and colonoscopy
- iFOBT is significantly less expensive than sigmoidoscopy and colonoscopy
- iFOBT has no health dangers associated with it. Although uncommon, sigmoidoscopy and colonoscopy can perforate the lining of the colon. Scope testing also requires the patient to be sedated which can also cause complications

Immunochemical FOB (FIT) technology is rapidly becoming the method of choice for Colorectal Cancer Screening.
In comparison with Guaiac-based testing, Hemosure® has a higher specificity due to its unique combination of monoclonal and polyclonal antibodies that are specific to human hemoglobin, unlike Guaiac-based tests, that also detect peroxidase activity from animal blood and other food. Therefore, traditional abstinence of food and drug by patients is no longer necessary. Doctors will find that patient compliance is greatly enhanced.
By reducing the number of false positive results over the conventional guaiac method, Hemosure® becomes a more valuable and cost-effective aid in the diagnosis of gastrointestinal bleeding disorders and colorectal cancer screening.
Reasons iFOBt can help increase the number of people who participate in CRC Screening:
