The most frequently exploited tumor markers
Nejčastěji užívanétumorové markery
Stanovování tumorových markerů (CEA, CA 19-9, CA 15-3, CA 72-4, SCC, CA 125, PSA, AFP,CYFRA 21-1, TPA, NSE) je jednou z možností, jak monitorovat průběh zhoubného onemocnění.Současná medicína nedokázala objevit molekulu, jejímž stanovením bychommohli konstatovat,že pacient má nádorové onemocnění. Vyšetření nádorových markerů nenahrazuje anamnézua dobře provedené fyzikální vyšetření pacienta, a už vůbec ne endoskopické a zobrazovacímetody, je však dobrým ukazatelem eventuální progrese či recidivy onemocnění. Vyjma PSAnení vyšetření tumorových markerů doporučováno jako diagnostické či screeningové vyšetření.

Overview
Levels of tumor markers (CEA, CA 19-9, CA 15-3, CA 72-4, SCC, CA 125, PSA, AFP, CYFRA21-1, TPA and NSE) can be used for monitoring the course of cancer.We have no serummarkersfor the diagnosis of cancer. Levels of serum tumor markers cannot replace an anamnesis and agood investigation of patients and, of course, endoscopic and visualization methods, we can usethem for the detection of progression. Except for PSA, there is no test of tumor markersrecommended for diagnostic or screening investigations.
Key words:
CEA - CA19-9 - CA15-3 - CA72-4 - SCC - CA125 - AFP - NSE - tumor marker.
