Fecal Immunochemical Test (FIT)

Pinnacle BioLabs Second Generation FIT is the gold standard in Colorectal Cancer detection, receiving a grade of 1B by the American College of Gastroenterology.  Clinical studies have shown that the Pinnacle BioLabs Second Generation FIT Colorectal Cancer Detection Test is highly sensitive for detecting human hemoglobin in and around the stool, a key indicator of abnormalities in the colon and rectum that doctors use to help screen for colorectal cancer. The test is 98% sensitive (sensitivity is defined as detecting a disease state when a disease state is in fact present) for human hemoglobin.  In a study of patients who were at average risk, high risk or had no symptoms at all,  The Pinnacle BioLabs Second Generation FIT was found to have 33% greater sensitivity for colorectal cancer than a leading guaiac-based FOBT screening test.  Additionally, the Second Generation FIT boasts a 96% specificity rating (specificity defined as the ability to produce a negative result when the disease state is not present) for dependable results.
