Fecal Calprotectin (IO0067)

Description

Fecal Calprotectin is a stool test used to measure calprotectin, a protein released by activated neutrophils during intestinal inflammation. It is a sensitive marker for detecting and monitoring inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), including Crohn’s disease and ulcerative colitis. The test helps differentiate inflammatory bowel conditions from functional disorders such as irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), reducing the need for invasive procedures like colonoscopy.
