About this document
Tumor Markers in Cancer Diagnosis by ayeshaalam220103 is a document available to read on EtoBox.
Tumor markers are substances produced by cancer cells or the body in response to cancer, used primarily for diagnosis, monitoring treatment, and detecting recurrence. Common examples include PSA for prostate cancer, CA-125 for ovarian cancer, and CEA for colorectal cancer, though they have limitations such as false positives and not being cancer-specific. They should be used alongside clinical findings and imaging for accurate interpretation.
