CA-724 is a glycoprotein antigen mainly used for diagnosing gastrointestinal diseases and ovarian tumors. Under normal conditions, a CA-724 value less than 6 indicates a relatively healthy gastrointestinal system. If the CA-724 value is higher than normal, it may indicate gastrointestinal or ovarian cancer, requiring further examination to confirm the location of the disease and formulate a corresponding treatment plan.
CA-724 is a common tumor marker, primarily used for diagnosing gastric cancer and other diseases. If the detected value is within the normal range, generally less than 6, it suggests a relatively healthy gastrointestinal tract. If the value increases slightly, it may be found in chronic gastritis, pancreatitis, and other diseases. For women, it may also be related to ovarian inflammation. If there is a significant increase, it may be considered gastric cancer, pancreatic cancer, colon cancer, lung cancer, ovarian cancer, etc. Detailed examination can rule out the possibility of malignant tumors.
If CA-724 is significantly higher than the normal value, there is a high suspicion of malignant tumors in the body. The significant increase in CA-724 is commonly seen in malignant tumors such as ovarian cancer, colorectal cancer, gastric cancer, breast cancer, and pancreatic cancer. Therefore, it is necessary to conduct corresponding examinations for malignant tumors first to determine which part has a tumor and then formulate a corresponding treatment plan.
