Shop - CA-72.4

The CA-72.4 test measures the level of cancer antigen 72-4 (CA-72.4) in the blood, which is a tumor marker often associated with gastrointestinal cancers, particularly gastric (stomach) cancer. Elevated levels of CA-72.4 can indicate the presence of malignancies, including gastric, colorectal, and ovarian cancers, although it may also be elevated in certain benign conditions. This test is primarily used to monitor disease progression, assess treatment response, and check for recurrence in patients previously diagnosed with cancer. A blood sample is required for the CA-72.4 test, and results are interpreted alongside clinical findings and imaging studies to provide a comprehensive evaluation of the patient’s health status.
