Does elevated tumor markers mean cancer?

The best strategy to deal with tumors is early diagnosis and early treatment. The most effective method for early tumor diagnosis is to find tumor markers in body fluids, especially protein markers, through in vitro diagnosis. Tumor markers are a class of substances that abnormally change due to the expression of related genes of tumor cells or the collective response to tumors in the process of tumor cell occurrence, proliferation, metastasis, or recurrence.
