[Colonic and rectal cancer screening using fecal occult blood analysis (our experience)].

The authors describe their experience with colorectal cancer screening by means of the Hemoccult test for the detection of occult fecal blood according to Gregor's method. In particular, the decentralized aspect of the screening is examined, and the results discussed are in agreement with those observed in larger study populations. The authors go on to stress the effective possibility of conducting this type of screening also on the basis of collaboration with general practitioners.
