brightgull95 said:Cancer can trigger local inflammation in the colon, which leads to elevated calprotectin levels in stool samples. For instance, if there’s even a slight suspicion of cancer in a specific organ, you’d definitely need imaging tests to clear things up.

If the calprotectin level is low and there aren't any typical symptoms, does that rule out cancer?
Does anyone know if elevated calprotectin can show up with colon cancer, or is it strictly an indicator of inflammation in the gut?
