  • Title: Tumor markers in epithelial ovarian cancer. Clinical applications.
    Author: Hempling RE.
    Journal: Obstet Gynecol Clin North Am; 1994 Mar; 21(1):41-61. PubMed ID: 8015766.
    Abstract:
    The role of tumor markers in the management of patients with epithelial ovarian cancer is expanding rapidly. Initially using heteroantisera and, most recently, monoclonal antibody-dependent assays, clinicians are equipped with new modalities that may be useful in evaluating disease status, monitoring the efficacy of therapy, diagnosing early recurrence, and screening patients for ovarian cancer. A knowledge of the efficacy of the most widely tested markers is important if they are to be used judiciously and in appropriate settings.
