[New techniques of immunochemical analysis: clinical application of time-resolved fluoroimmunoassay to CA 50 determination].
New techniques in immunochemical analysis were reviewed briefly. Introduction of these new techniques into routine tests has made test results more precise and informative than before. By using one of these techniques, time-resolved fluoroimmunoassay, serum concentrations of CA 50 were quantitated in various malignancies. Clinical usefulness of its quantitation was proved especially in the diagnosis of pancreatic cancer.
