Article Title: Enzymes in cancer
Abstract: Serum enzyme measurements are not useful in screening for cancer or in primary diagnosis. Just as is the case for other tumor markers, they have an important role in confirming diagnosis and establishing the stage of disease. They also are useful in predicting prognosis and then in following the course of the disease.
