Understanding Your Health: AFP Tumour Marker Test
When health concerns arise, especially those related to cancer detection and monitoring, it’s natural to feel anxious. At Oracle Genomics, we understand that waiting for answers can be stressful. Our AFP Tumour Marker Test provides the clarity you need with compassion and medical expertise. For just ZAR 350, you can take an important step toward understanding your liver health and cancer risk.
What Does the AFP Test Detect?
The AFP (Alpha-Fetoprotein) Tumour Marker Test measures the level of alpha-fetoprotein in your blood. This protein is normally produced by a developing fetus, but elevated levels in adults can indicate certain health conditions. Our test uses advanced chemiluminescent immunoassay technology to provide highly accurate results that your healthcare provider can use to assess your liver health and monitor for potential concerns.
Think of this test as an early warning system – it helps detect potential issues before they become more serious, giving you and your doctor valuable information to make informed decisions about your health care.
Who Should Consider This Test?
This test is particularly important if you:
- Have been diagnosed with liver cancer and need treatment monitoring
- Experience persistent symptoms like abdominal pain, unexplained weight loss, or fatigue
- Have a family history of liver cancer or cirrhosis
- Are being monitored for testicular cancer (in men)
- Have chronic liver conditions like hepatitis or cirrhosis
- Want peace of mind about your liver health status
Many South Africans face liver health challenges due to various factors, making regular monitoring an essential part of proactive healthcare.
Why This Test Matters for Your Health
Early detection can make a significant difference in cancer outcomes. The AFP test offers several important benefits:
