The Role of CA19-9 in Predicting Tumour Resectability in Carcinoma Head of Pancreas [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Clinical and Diagnostic Research, 2016
Introduction: Carbohydrate antigen 19-9 (CA 19-9) is a tumour associated antigen. Blood levels may be elevated in benign as well as malignant conditions. Its sensitivity (70-90%) and specificity (68-91%) are inadequate for accurate diagnosis.
