In histology, tumor markers can be used for several purposes:
Diagnosis: Identifying specific tumor markers can help in diagnosing the type and origin of cancer. Prognosis: Tumor marker levels can indicate the aggressiveness of the cancer and potential outcomes. Monitoring: Regular measurement of tumor markers can help track the effectiveness of treatment and detect recurrence. Therapeutic Decisions: Certain markers can predict response to specific therapies, aiding in personalized treatment plans.
