CA19.9

The CA19.9 test measures the level of a specific tumor marker called CA 19.9 in the blood, often associated with gastrointestinal cancers, particularly pancreatic cancer. This biomarker is produced by certain cells in the body, specifically epithelial cells. These cells are found in various tissues, including the gastrointestinal tract. Elevated levels of CA 19.9 are often associated with cancers that involve these tissues, such as pancreatic, colorectal, and gastric cancers. However, CA 19.9 can also be produced by non-cancerous conditions, impacting its specificity as a diagnostic marker. For a comprehensive evaluation, it is advised to consider other diagnostic tests in conjunction with CA19.9 test and consult a doctor for a proper understanding of the test results.
