Carcinoembryonic antigen result is 1.99ug/L, which is normal.
Carcinoembryonic antigen is a broad-spectrum tumor marker, which can be found in a variety of tumor diseases, and is commonly used in the auxiliary diagnosis of malignant tumors, prognosis judgment, and monitoring recurrence.
The normal value of carcinoembryonic antigen is <5ug/L, which may vary depending on the testing machine.
If carcinoembryonic antigen is elevated, pancreatic cancer, colon cancer, rectal cancer, breast cancer, gastric cancer, lung cancer, etc. can be considered. It may decrease when the disease improves and increase when it recurs. In addition, certain benign diseases, such as colitis, pancreatitis, emphysema, heavy smokers, etc. may also show mild elevation.
If carcinoembryonic antigen is normal, certain tumor diseases cannot be completely excluded, and it is necessary to refer to other results to make a comprehensive judgment so as to avoid delaying the condition.
