Several methods are employed to monitor cancer progress, including:
Imaging tests: Techniques like CT scans, MRI, PET scans, and X-rays help visualize the tumor's size and location. Blood tests: These can measure tumor markers, proteins, or other substances produced by cancer cells. Biopsies: A sample of tissue is taken to examine the presence and characteristics of cancer cells. Physical examinations: Regular check-ups by healthcare providers can detect physical changes or symptoms indicative of cancer progression.
