Carcinoembryonic Antigen (CEA) Blood Test
Item # LC002139
CEA measurement aids in the management of cancer and other conditions
This test can be useful in aiding the management of cancer treatment because it measures blood levels of carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA). CEA levels are elevated when cancer or inflammation are present.

CEA levels are elevated in smokers as well as other non-cancerous conditions such as inflammation from recent infections, inflammatory bowel disease, and pancreatitis. Instructions Fasting is not required for this test. Take all medications as prescribed. Note Carcinoembryonic antigen assay value is not intended to be used as a screening test. It should be used in conjunction with information from a clinical evaluation and diagnostic procedure. |
