Clinical Protocol

The Importance of Tumor Markers

Tumor markers are substances found in the blood that are produced by cancer cells or by the body in response to cancer. While they are crucial for monitoring treatment efficacy and checking for recurrence, they must be interpreted alongside clinical imaging and biopsy results.

Patient FAQ

?

Can a tumor marker diagnose cancer on its own?

No. Tumor markers are usually elevated in many non-cancerous conditions as well. They are best used for monitoring and as part of a larger diagnostic workup.

?

Why is Beta HCG tested in men?

In men, Beta HCG is a significant tumor marker used to help detect and monitor certain types of testicular cancers.

?

Is fasting required for these tests?

Generally, no, but it is often recommended to take these tests in a controlled state. Specific markers like Thyroglobulin may require specific instructions from your doctor.

?

What is the role of CBC in cancer screening?

A Complete Blood Count (CBC) helps detect abnormalities in white cells, red cells, and platelets, which can be an early sign of blood-related malignancies or systemic impact.
