CA19.9 - Pancreatic Cancer Marker measures a specific biomarker that oncologists use to screen for cancer risk, assess disease burden, or track how well treatment is working. An elevated result triggers further investigation.

What does CA19.9 - Pancreatic Cancer Marker measure?

The CA19.9 test measures a protein called carbohydrate antigen 19-9 in the blood. Cells in the pancreas and bile ducts can release this substance. It is not a normal body function, but it can rise when certain glands are irritated or when cancer is present. The specific marker measured depends on the test your doctor has ordered.

Results are compared against established reference ranges for your age and gender.
