What is a Cyfra - Lung Cancer Marker Test in Mumbai ?

What is Cyfra - Lung Cancer Marker?

The Cyfra test measures a protein fragment called CYFRA 21-1 that is released into the blood when certain lung cells break down. Cytokeratin fragments like CYFRA are parts of the structural proteins inside epithelial cells.

What does Cyfra - Lung Cancer Marker measure?

Higher blood levels can indicate the presence or progression of lung cancer, especially non-small cell and squamous cell types. The test is not definitive by itself. Doctors use it alongside imaging, biopsy, and other tests. It is most useful for monitoring treatment response and for detecting cancer recurrence.

What symptoms suggest Cyfra - Lung Cancer Marker may be needed?

A doctor may recommend Cyfra - Lung Cancer Marker when a patient reports unexplained weight loss, persistent fatigue, a lump under the skin, changes in bowel or bladder habits, unexplained pain, abnormal bleeding, persistent cough, or difficulty swallowing. GetVisit makes testing convenient in Mumbai, with lab slots and home collection in Borivali, Andheri, and nearby areas.

How is Cyfra - Lung Cancer Marker performed?

Whether you visit a walk-in lab in Borivali or book home collection in Andheri, Mumbai, the process is the same. A trained phlebotomist performs a brief, sterile venipuncture, barcodes the sample for tracking, and dispatches it to the NABL lab. Your digital report is available in the GetVisit app the same day for most blood tests.

How accurate is Cyfra - Lung Cancer Marker?

Results are analytically reliable because GetVisit's Mumbai logistics network maintains proper cold-chain transport from your Borivali or Andheri collection point to the processing lab, preserving sample integrity. NABL independently audits quality control at regular intervals.

Are there any risks to Cyfra - Lung Cancer Marker?

There is little to worry about. The needle prick lasts a moment and any bruising fades quickly. If you bruise easily or take blood thinners, tell the phlebotomist in Borivali or Andheri, Mumbai so they can apply pressure for longer.

Did you know?

CYFRA 21‑1 is a blood tumor marker made of soluble fragments of cytokeratin 19 released from dying epithelial tumor cells.

Cyfra - Lung Cancer Marker Test Preparation in Mumbai

Your medicines:

There's usually no need to stop your regular medication; just let the staff know what you take.

Before you come:

Eat and drink as you normally would; fasting is not required. Try to avoid a very fatty meal or alcohol right before the appointment.

Booking your slot:

Morning appointments suit most tests, when the body's markers are most stable. GetVisit home collection in Mumbai starts at 6:00 AM, including Powai and Mulund.

Documents and clothing:

Carry your test requisition, a government-issued ID, and any previous reports so results can be compared over time.

Cyfra - Lung Cancer Marker Test Parameters in Mumbai

Single standalone test:

Cyfra - Lung Cancer Marker. Can be ordered individually or as part of a preventive health package on GetVisit.

Why Take a Cyfra - Lung Cancer Marker Test in Mumbai ?

When does a doctor order Cyfra - Lung Cancer Marker?

Cyfra - Lung Cancer Marker is often part of a tumor marker panel used when lung cancer is suspected or known. Doctors may order it for symptoms such as persistent cough, blood in sputum, unexplained weight loss, or increasing breathlessness.

Who should get Cyfra - Lung Cancer Marker done in Mumbai?

Mumbai's 21 million metropolitan population, annual monsoon flooding creating severe leptospirosis and dengue risk in Kurla, Andheri, and Ghatkopar, high corporate stress and commute burden, significant diabetes and cardiovascular disease prevalence, and a massive working population with irregular meal and sleep patterns make regular preventive diagnostic testing an essential health investment for all residents. Cancer-marker testing benefits people with a strong family history, relevant risk factors, or symptoms warranting evaluation, and patients monitoring treatment response or recurrence. In Mumbai, GetVisit supports timely testing for residents of Ghatkopar, Borivali, and across the city, always alongside specialist review.

What conditions can Cyfra - Lung Cancer Marker help diagnose?

It helps detect and monitor non-small cell and squamous cell lung cancers, assess treatment response, and watch for recurrence. Elevated levels can result from cancer, smoking, infections, or inflammation, and a family history of lung cancer may make testing more relevant.

What do Cyfra - Lung Cancer Marker results mean?

Your result is read against the reference range printed on your GetVisit report for your age and sex, and always alongside your symptoms and history. A single value slightly outside the range does not by itself confirm a problem, your doctor decides whether it is significant. The specific high and low patterns for this test are explained in the FAQs below.

How often should Cyfra - Lung Cancer Marker be repeated?

For screening in higher-risk individuals: at the interval recommended for that specific cancer. For patients under treatment or in remission: on the schedule set by the oncologist, often every few months, to track the marker's trend rather than any single value.

What happens after Cyfra - Lung Cancer Marker results are ready?

You will be notified the moment results are ready, usually the same day for routine tests. Open the report in the GetVisit app to see each value beside its reference range, share it with your doctor in a tap, or book a specialist consultation to talk it through.

What is a Cyfra tumor marker?plus

CYFRA 21‑1 is a blood tumor marker made of soluble fragments of cytokeratin 19 released from dying epithelial tumor cells. It’s mainly used in non‑small‑cell lung cancer, especially squamous cell type, to aid prognosis, monitor treatment response and detect recurrence. Levels may also rise with other cancers or benign lung diseases, so results are interpreted alongside imaging and clinical findings.

What is the marker CA125 for lung cancer?plus

CA125 (cancer antigen 125) is a blood tumor marker mainly known for ovarian cancer but can be elevated in some lung cancers, especially adenocarcinoma or when the pleura is involved. It is neither sensitive nor specific for diagnosis, but rising levels may indicate advanced disease, pleural effusion, or progression and can help monitor response to treatment alongside imaging.

What is the CYFRA 21-1 test for?plus

The CYFRA 21‑1 test measures fragments of cytokeratin 19 in blood as a tumor marker. It’s mainly used in lung cancer, especially non‑small cell (squamous), to help with diagnosis, assess prognosis, monitor treatment response and detect recurrence. Levels can be raised in other cancers or benign lung disease, so it isn’t a standalone screening test and must be interpreted with clinical and imaging findings.

How sensitive is CYFRA 21-1 tumor marker?plus

CYFRA 21‑1 has moderate sensitivity for detecting non‑small cell lung cancer, typically around 50–70%, higher in squamous‑cell histology. Sensitivity depends on assay cut‑offs, stage and tumor burden, so it cannot rule out cancer alone. It’s most useful combined with imaging and other markers, and for monitoring treatment response or recurrence rather than as a standalone diagnostic test.

Can menstruation affect Cyfra - Lung Cancer Marker results?plus

Some tests, such as iron studies and certain hormone panels, can be influenced by your menstrual cycle. If you are on your period, mention it so your doctor can judge whether timing matters for Cyfra - Lung Cancer Marker.

Can I drink coffee or tea before Cyfra - Lung Cancer Marker?plus

If Cyfra - Lung Cancer Marker needs fasting, avoid tea and coffee (even without sugar) during the fasting window, as they can affect some results; plain water is fine. If no fasting is required, your usual drinks are okay.
