Clinical Overview

Clinical Summary: A stool routine examination is a microscopic analysis used to identify parasites, worms, and signs of infection in the digestive tract. It is the gold standard for investigating persistent stomach issues.

What is Stool Microscopy?

Technicians examine the sample for ova (eggs), cysts, and parasites, as well as the presence of red blood cells or mucus, which may indicate inflammation or occult bleeding.

Why get tested?

  • Prolonged diarrhea, abdominal cramping, or bloating.
  • To screen for intestinal parasites in children or travelers.
  • If blood or mucus is visible in the stool.
