Cancer screening report
I have attached the range for the cancer screening. The interpretation says for CA15.3 as "CA 15.3 may be elevated in benign Breast and Liver diseases". Can someone help me.

Your CA 15.3 level is normal in the report. There’s no cause for concern, even though CA 15.3 can be slightly elevated in some benign breast conditions. It’s not very reliable for early breast cancer detection, so this normal result is reassuring. No action needed unless you have symptoms.

The tumour markers are within normal limits. Ca 15.3 as a tumour marker does not have significance and we dont use for that for breast cancer diagnosis.
