This is my summary slide on fecal occult blood testing. Compliance is always an issue with prevention, and we’ll come back to that. Just a couple of percent of people should be positive out of 100. Only a small percentage of those have cancer, so there’s a fair amount of false positives. The reduction in mortality is about 15-18%. |
