area and examined under a microscope by a pathologist. This helps identify the type of cancer and its
stage.

3. Blood tests: Blood tests such as CA-125, CA 19-9, and CEA may be ordered to check for the presence
of certain biomarkers associated with different types of cancer.

4. Endoscopy: An endoscopy is a procedure in which a flexible tube with a camera on the end is inserted
into the body through the mouth, nose, or rectum to look for signs of cancer.

5. Colonoscopy: A colonoscopy is a type of endoscopy specifically used to examine the colon for signs of
cancer.

6. Histology: Histology is the study of tissue structure and function. The pathologist examines tissue
samples under a microscope to determine whether cancer is present.

It is important to note that not all of these tests may be needed and the specific tests required will
depend on the type of cancer and the patient's symptoms. A doctor will determine which tests are
necessary based on the patient's individual situation.
