Can early EB test for nasopharyngeal carcinoma be detected?

1. Nasopharyngeal carcinoma is located in a deep part of the body and its early symptoms are not typical. Therefore, it is not easy to detect nasopharyngeal carcinoma in the early stage and is prone to misdiagnosis or missed diagnosis. Patients may not come to the ENT department for treatment until they find a lump on their neck or lymph node metastasis. How can it be detected in the early stage? When there are suspicious symptoms, you must go to the hospital in time and let the doctor do a nasal endoscopy examination.

2. The occurrence of nasopharyngeal carcinoma is related to Epstein-Barr virus. In the early stage of nasopharyngeal carcinoma, Epstein-Barr virus may show abnormalities, such as EBV-CA IgA positivity and increased titer. If the titer increases significantly, usually more than three times, nasopharyngeal carcinoma is suspected. In this case, an electronic nasopharyngeal endoscopy is recommended.

3. Generally, Epstein-Barr virus can be checked in tertiary hospitals. Although Epstein-Barr virus is related to the incidence of nasopharyngeal carcinoma, it does not mean that infection with Epstein-Barr virus will definitely cause nasopharyngeal carcinoma. If there is infection, regular nasal endoscopy can be sufficient.
