Abstract:
Several tumor markers are produced by the limited organ and have the advantage for the determination of the origin. However, many tumor markers are produced by various organs and are not specific to cancer but associated with cancer. therefore, combination assays using different categories of tumor markers are necessary to increase the efficacy of cancer-diagnosis and to determine the origin of tumor.
