Calprotectin Fecal Test

Gastroenterologists, primary care physicians, or healthcare providers may request a Calprotectin Fecal Test to assess gastrointestinal health and diagnose or monitor conditions like IBD.

Calprotectin Fecal Tests are typically used when there is suspicion of gastrointestinal disorders, especially in cases of unexplained abdominal symptoms, diarrhea, or suspected inflammatory bowel disease.

The test itself typically takes just a few minutes to collect a stool sample. The entire process, including sample collection, processing, and analysis, may take a few days to a week. Results are usually available within that timeframe.
