Can nasopharyngeal cancer be detected by blood test

Can nasopharyngeal cancer be detected through blood test?

1. Nasopharyngeal carcinoma is generally not easy to diagnose with a blood test, and a preliminary diagnosis is mainly made based on the patient's specific clinical symptoms and the results of a nasopharyngeal MRI examination. For patients with thickened nasopharyngeal mucosa, further nasopharyngeal endoscopic biopsy can be considered to confirm the pathological diagnosis and then further evaluate the treatment plan.

2. EB virus infection is positively correlated with nasopharyngeal carcinoma. Therefore, the possibility of EB nasopharyngeal carcinoma can be found in the virus through blood test, but nasopharyngeal carcinoma cannot be diagnosed.

3. Nasopharyngeal carcinoma screening can be performed by blood test for Epstein-Barr virus.

Will people with nasopharyngeal cancer feel sleepy?

After getting nasopharyngeal cancer, you will generally feel sleepy. Patients with this cancer may feel that their disease cannot be cured, which will lead to a particularly low mood, and then they are prone to give up on themselves, resulting in a decrease in body resistance and some symptoms of drowsiness. Nasopharyngeal cancer is a malignant tumor, and in the middle and late stages, nasal discomfort such as nosebleeds will occur.

If a nasopharyngeal cancer patient is sleepy, it is necessary to consider whether there is intracranial metastasis or whether there is breathing difficulty leading to coma. If the nasopharyngeal cancer is serious, it will lead to a decline in overall body function.
