Description
Helicobacter pylori is a bacterial infection strongly associated with persistent stomach inflammation. Such inflammation can significantly increase the risk of stomach or duodenal ulcer formation. The stool test is a convenient, non-invasive way of testing for H.pylori for both diagnosis and follow-up testing. This marker can also be added to other larger stool tests by request.
