Tumor Markers in Clinical Practice

question 1 of 94 course: Biomedical Science(Degree)

Q: Why is it important to measure both AFP and HCG in a patient with a testicular mass?

HCG is measured in blood and AFP is measured in urine.
One is for diagnosis and the other is for predicting chemotherapy side effects.
They are always both elevated in every testicular cancer.
They provide complementary information for diagnosis, subtyping, and monitoring.
