This is work by the team at @EdinburghColo >15% have -ve to +ve and vice versa when 2 tests done. Double testing reduces the chance of missing sinister pathologies.

🧵1/2 Researchers from @EdinburghUni have found that the accuracy of detecting bowel cancer is increased to almost 100 per cent by carrying out a faecal immunochemical test (FIT) twice rather than once.
