【13】People exposed to certain animal antigens may develop antibodies to CEA that might affect CEA levels and lead to unreliable results. Smokers are highly likely to get false-positive results; therefore, the test is unreliable in active smoke...
The doctor will place a needle into a vein in your arm to draw out the blood. You might feel a slight pinch or sting when the needle goes in. Sometimes doctors will test CEA levels in another bodily fluid, such as: Cerebrospinal (from thespine) ...
This difference was due first to a poor-risk group of 13 patients with rapidly disseminating tumors, very short survival (<12 months), and low CEA levels. Secondly, there were more patients with pulmonary involvement and unfavorable prognosis and fewer patients with osseous metastases and long ...

Results were processed by means of t-test, two way analysis of variance in F-test, and logistic general linear model with calculations of Pearson's correlation coefficient. RESULTS: Baseline levels of CEA in BCP were significantly higher than in healthy women (p < 0.0001), and in patients ...
If a patient’s doctor orders testing on peritoneal fluids or CSF to monitor CEA levels, a patient may be instructed to empty their bladder and bowels before the test. During the test When a blood draw is performed, doctors use a needle to remove a sample of the blood from a patient’...
