What is Carcino Embryonic Antigen-CEA
Carcinoembryonic Antigen (CEA) is a protein that is produced by some cancerous tumors, including those in the colon, rectum, pancreas, and breast. CEA blood tests are performed to monitor cancer treatment and detect cancer recurrence. The test involves drawing a blood sample from a vein in the arm and measuring the levels of CEA in the blood. Elevated levels of CEA may indicate the presence of cancer, but it is not a definitive diagnostic test as other conditions may cause elevated levels.
