About Cancer & Tumor Marker Tests in Kaneohe
Tumor markers are proteins, hormones, or other molecules that can be detected in blood. Their levels may rise with some cancers, but they can also be elevated by benign conditions.
Each marker is associated with particular cancer types. For example, CA-125 is often monitored in ovarian cancer, PSA in prostate cancer, and CEA in colorectal cancer. A single marker is rarely specific enough to confirm or rule out cancer on its own.
Doctors order these tests for several reasons: to help evaluate a suspicious finding, to monitor response to treatment, or to watch for recurrence after therapy. Results are interpreted against a person's history, symptoms, and other test findings.
Because marker levels can fluctuate and overlap with non-cancerous conditions, results should always be discussed with a clinician who can put them in context. Reference ranges vary by laboratory and by the method used.
