[Use of determination of the serum carcinoembryonic antigen in oncopulmonology].
The test for the determination of the serum carcinoembryonic antigen was found to possess low specificity and to be of little use for the diagnosis of lung cancer. The test can be used for the detection of patients with diagnosed non-small-cell cancer of the lung for more exact staging of the disease and exclusion of distant metastases as well as for more active using adjuvant methods of treatment and for the dynamic observation of the course of the disease.
