Tumour Counters - help please

Can anyone please tell me what "tumour counter" readings are and how significant they are?

  • Hello jack2015,

    I am one of the information cancer nurses.  I wonder if you can provide some more information because I am afraid I do not recognise the term ‘tumour counter’.  I wonder if you mean ‘tumour marker’ which is a protein that can be produced by some types of cancer and measured in a blood test.

    If you are able to give us a little more information please do get back to us.  You can post in ‘ask the nurse’ or if you would prefer to speak to one of the information nurses, you can telephone us on 0808 800 4040. We are here between 9am and 5pm, Monday to Friday.

    Wit best wishes

    Caroline
