To evaluate its clinical utility in the early detection of colorectal diseases, we carried out the immunological fecal occult blood test in 922 patients and monitored the clinical course of the 87 patients in whom it was positive. Thirty-five (40.2%) of these patients underwent subsequent X-ray and colonoscopy, and colorectal cancer was detected in 8 (20%). Our findings confirm the clinical usefulness of this test.
