Samples of stool obtained during the exam may be sent to the lab to test them for the presence of occult blood. double-contrast examinationA radiographic examination in which a radiopaque and a radiolucent contrast medium are used simultaneously to visualize internal anatomy.endoscopic examinationDirect visualization of an internal organ with a fiber-optic tube, often accompanied by biopsy of suspicious lesions.
