Squamous Antigen SCC

SCC Squamous Cell Antigen is a test that belongs to the neoplasia markers. These substances are produced by the body's normal cells at some level. When "new" cells appear, then their most intense metabolism produces these substances at increased levels.

Young cells can be a result of:

  1. tissue regeneration after some destruction - inflammation
  2. development of new pathologically differentiated tissue or non-pathologically differentiated tissue

Their use is suggested for monitoring disease and treatment mainly for the cervix

The index corresponds to neoplasms:

  1. esophagus
  2. lung
  3. head

In adults (18-65 years old) indicative values are < 2.5 ng/ml

Simple blood collection happens at any time of the day (7.30-19.30)

  1. without restrictions on food from the previous day
  2. without restrictions on possible medication intake
  3. the result is not affected of any existing transient illness - cold

The result is given on the next day after 6.00 pm. for blood draws until 11.00 am

Private individual examination costs (S.C.C.) 50 euros*.

The examination is prescribed at the EOPYY**, with the participation of the examinee as defined in the referral (15%, unless otherwise stated)
