What are tumour markers for mesothelioma?
Can anybody tell me names of tumour markers that appear in blood in case of mesothelioma?And can they appear in other types of cancer?
D2-40 and podoplanin are two blood markers for mesothelioma tumor cells. D2-40 may appear also as a marker for retinal cancer. There are other tests.
This websites give a lot of info.
