What's in the test?

Bowel health

qFIT

Learn more

The qFIT (quantitative faecal immunochemical test) measures levels of human globin proteins in your stool, a component of blood. It’s a sensitive marker for identifying early signs of bowel cancer or other conditions affecting the digestive tract, making it a useful screening tool.  

How to prepare for your test

Prepare for your qFIT Bowel Cancer Screening Test by following these instructions. If you’re on your period, wait until your period has ended before collecting your sample to avoid contamination. Collect your stool sample at any time of day. Avoid taking this test if you have haemorrhoids (piles), an anal fissure, or if you’ve had a procedure involving the digestive tract in the last 14 days, like a biopsy or colonoscopy.

Test limitations

The qFIT test can’t diagnose bowel cancer or inflammatory bowel disease – if you’re result is positive, you’ll likely need a repeat test or further investigations to determine the cause. Occasionally, the qFIT test may return a positive result even when there is no significant health issue (false positive), or it may miss detecting blood present in the stool (false negative).

FAQs

What is the qFIT test?

The qFIT (quantitative faecal immunochemical test) detects microscopic blood in the digestive tract, which can sometimes indicate bowel cancer or inflammatory bowel disease. Unlike a simple "positive" or "negative" result, the qFIT test provides an exact value for the concentration of blood detected.

How often should I take a qFIT test?

Bowel cancer screening is offered to everyone aged 54 to 74 every two years on the NHS. However, some people may choose to test more frequently than this. If you have symptoms of bowel cancer, it's important to speak to a doctor as soon as possible.

How accurate is the qFIT test?

The qFIT test is highly accurate in ruling out bowel cancer. A result below 10 µg Hb/g means there’s over a 99% chance you don’t have bowel cancer, though in rare cases (1 in 1000), it can miss cancer.

For positive results (above 10 µg Hb/g), only 1 in 10 people are later found to have cancer after further investigation. The test is designed to detect human haemoglobin, avoiding false positives from animal blood in meat.

Taking two qFIT tests improves accuracy, with one study showing that two negative qFIT tests reduce the likelihood of colorectal cancer to 0.04%.

What threshold classes as a positive qFIT result?

The threshold for a positive qFIT result depends on whether you have symptoms.

With symptoms: A result above 10 µg Hb/g is positive, as the likelihood of cancer is higher.

Without symptoms: A higher threshold is used. In national screening programmes, the cut-off ranges from 80 to 120 µg Hb/g, depending on your region, which you can find here.

There is not enough evidence currently to suggest different thresholds for people of different ages, sex, or ethnicities, but we know that the risk of bowel cancer is higher for some groups.

What happens if I receive a positive qFIT result?

If your result is positive, it means blood was detected in your stool. While this isn’t necessarily a cause for alarm, it does require further investigation.

We’ll recommend that you share your result with your doctor, who may repeat the test or order additional investigations to determine the cause of bleeding.

Reassuringly, 9 out of 10 positive results are not due to bowel cancer.

What’s the difference between the FIT test and the qFIT test?

The key difference between the FIT test and the qFIT test is how results are reported:

The FIT test is qualitative, providing a simple positive or negative result based on whether blood exceeds a set threshold.

The qFIT test is quantitative, measuring the exact amount of blood (haemoglobin) in the stool, reported in µg Hb/g, allowing for more precise and personalised decision-making.

What’s the difference between the qFIT test and the FOB test?

While the faecal occult blood (FOB) test is still used, it's mostly been replace by the qFIT test because it's more accurate, with fewer false positives, and is unaffected by diet.

What else can cause a positive qFIT result?

Only 1 in 10 qFIT results over 10mcgHb/g are due to bowel cancer. Other causes of a raised result include gastritis, inflammatory bowel disease (ulcerative colitis and Crohn’s disease), piles, ulcers, polyps, swallowed blood from bleeding gums.

Who’s most at risk for bowel cancer?

Bowel cancer is the fourth most common cancer in the UK. It’s more common in people over 50, but it can affect anyone of any age. You’re more likely to get bowel cancer if you have a close relative who’s had bowel cancer, you smoke, you’re overweight, have inflammatory bowel disease, or bowel polyps.

Fortunately, when bowel cancer is caught early, it’s a very treatable condition.

How can I lower my risk of bowel cancer?

You can't always prevent bowel cancer, but leading a healthy lifestyle can lower your risk. For example, eat a healthy diet low in red or processed meats, exercise regularly, maintain a healthy weight, stop smoking, and drink less alcohol.
