Tumor marker
AFP is a tumor marker test for liver cancer, CA1-9t9 for pancreatic cancer and biliary tract cancer,
CEA for colorectal cancer, CA125 for ovarian cancer, and PSA for prostate cancer. However, tumor
markers may rise in cases other than cancer. In particular, the level of CEA may be high in smokers,
the level of CA125 may be high during menstruation, and the level of PSA may be high in benign
prostatic hyperplasia. Even if the tumor marker is normal, cancer may be present, so this test
cannot replace an examination, such as endoscopy, ultrasound, and CT.
