Quest Diagnostics: At-Home FIT

Quest Diagnostics this week launched its at-home collection fecal immunochemical test, which is used to screen for colorectal cancer in stool samples. If blood is found in the sample, further screening and evaluation, such as a colonoscopy, will be recommended. Patients using the test, offered through the QuestDirect business, will be sent a collection kit via FedEx along with a prepaid FedEx shipping label and envelope by which the sample can be sent to Quest for testing.
