Understanding CA19.9 in Chandigarh
What is CA19.9 in Chandigarh?
This test measures the amount of a protein called CA 19-9 (cancer antigen19-9), a type of tumor marker in the blood. This test is primarily used in the diagnosis of pancreatic cancer as well as during the treatment of pancreatic cancer.
Healthy people can have small amounts of CA 19-9 in their blood. The levels of CA 19-9 are found to be elevated in other cancers as well, such as gallbladder and cholangiocarcinoma (bile duct cancer), colorectal cancer, ovarian cancer, gastric cancer, liver cancer, lung cancer.
Sometimes elevated levels of CA 19-9 might also indicate inflammation of the pancreas, cirrhosis, gallstones and thyroid disease.
