ABSTRACT

Therefore, the present study was undertaken to evaluate the clinical significance of tumour marker CA 15-3 along with Carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) in India women population. Tumour marker CA 15-3 concentrations reflected the tumour burden in a better way than CEA. However, the use of CEA as an additional conventional marker improved the Clinical efficiency of the marker CA 15-3.
