Cancer Antigen (CA) 125 - Ovarian cancer marker
This test is a tumor marker for monitoring disease progression in cancer of the ovary. It is most useful in monitoring progression or recurrence in cases of known ovarian, pancreas, liver, colon, breast, and lung carcinoma. CA 125 can also be detected in pregnancy, tubo-ovarian abscess, endometriosis, and benign teratomas.
