Female Tumour Marker [Sunway Medical Centre Velocity]

Cancer Screening

▸ Alpha-Fetoprotein (AFP)

AFP (alpha feto protein) helps diagnose and monitor treatment for certain cancers of the liver, ovaries or testicles. A raised value increases the likelihood of cancer. Early detection greatly improves response to treatment.

▸ Carcinoembryonic Antigen (CEA) (Gastric, Colon Cancer)

CEA is a tumour marker for certain cancers like colon, bladder, breast, lung, ovarian, pancreatic, stomach and thyroid. A raised value increases the likelihood of cancer. Early detection greatly improves response to treatment.

▸ CA 19.9 (Pancreas, Digestive System)

This is a pancreatic cancer marker. A raised value increases the likelihood of pancreatic cancer. Early detection greatly improves response to treatment.

▸ CA 125 (Ovary Cancer)

This is an ovarian cancer marker. A raised value increases the likelihood of ovarian cancer. Early detection greatly improves response to treatment.

▸ CA 15.3 (Breast Cancer)

This is a breast cancer marker. A raised value increases the likelihood of breast cancer with potential metastatic spread. Early detection greatly improves response to treatment.
