Carbohydrate antigen 242 is actually a carbohydrate antigen and a new tumor marker. Its standard value is less than 20IU/ml. When the carbohydrate antigen 242 exceeds the standard value by more than 3 times, it is considered high-risk. It has significant diagnostic significance. Generally, if the content in tumor tissue greatly exceeds the normal value, it indicates the occurrence and characteristics of the tumor. By understanding these values, it can be used as a reference criterion for judging whether it is a tumor.
1. The normal range of carbohydrate antigen 22 is between 0 and 20. It is a marker of whether the digestive system is diseased, such as common rectal or pancreatic cancer, which has good diagnostic significance for these diseases. However, it is not suitable for the diagnosis of squamous cell carcinoma, and a single indicator cannot be used as a basis for judging the condition. It needs to be comprehensively judged by multiple diagnostic results.
2. For some patients with gastrointestinal cancer, the content of carbohydrate antigen 242 generally increases, but there is also the possibility of false positives, such as previously taking some antibiotics or being in an inflammatory period. These values will change, so a more comprehensive examination is needed for diagnosis.
3. To understand some diseases of the body, one must go to a formal and professional hospital for a comprehensive examination. Comprehensive consideration can only confirm scientific treatment and medication, because many disease symptoms may have similar manifestations.
