OPTIONAL TESTS

Bowel Cancer Test
This detects the presence of blood in the stool and is recommended for patients over the age of 45. For those with a strong family history of bowel cancer, the option of referral for a colonoscopy will be discussed and advised upon where appropriate.

Exercise Electrocardiogram
An exercise or stress electrocardiogram provides information about the electrical conduction and blood flow of the heart during exercise. As well as being an assessment of cardio-vascular fitness, it particularly assists in the diagnosis of underlying coronary artery disease, high blood pressure and irregular heart rhythms.

This test is recommended biennially in men over 45 years of age and annually where there are significant cardiac risk factors present. The results are reported on by a Consultant Cardiologist with appropriate management advice.
