Is neuron-specific enolase 28.32 normal?



Neuron-specific enolase 28.32 should refer to a neuron-specific enolase of 28.32 ng/mL, which is outside the normal range.

Clinically, the normal value of neuron-specific enolase is 15.7 to 17ng/mL, beyond which neuron-specific enolase is considered abnormal, so neuron-specific enolase 28.32ng/mL has been elevated and is not normal.

Neuron-specific enolase is found in neural and neuroendocrine tissues and is mainly involved in the glycolytic pathway. Clinically, neuron-specific enolase is mostly used to detect the occurrence of small-cell lung cancer and neuroblastoma, and its elevation can also be seen in medullary thyroid carcinoma, pheochromocytoma, melanoma and other diseases.

Neuron-specific enolase 28.32ng/mL is not normal, but this test alone can not diagnose a certain disease, it is recommended that the patient consult a doctor in a timely manner, and further improve the relevant tests to clarify the diagnosis.
