— Explanation · 中文詳解 —
大腸癌篩檢(Colorectal cancer screening)在臨床預防中屬於二級預防(Secondary prevention),旨在早期診斷。糞便潛血檢查(FOBT)是透過檢測糞便中微量血液來發現腸道潛在病灶(如息肉或癌變),具有高度成本效益且非侵入性。對於中年成人,定期進行 FOBT 或大腸鏡檢查是公認的臨床篩檢常規。
The fecal occult blood test (FOBT) is a recommended secondary prevention screening for middle-aged adults to detect early signs of colorectal cancer or polyps by identifying microscopic blood in the stool. This non-invasive and cost-effective test allows for early diagnosis, which is crucial for effective treatment.

在美國,針對 45-50 歲以上成人,指南更傾向推薦「大腸鏡檢查(Colonoscopy)」作為黃金標準,但 FOBT 仍是重要的替代篩檢方式。
