Create a PowerPoint presentation in English about Tumour Markers, based on the provided PDF content. The presentation should have 9 slides with a calm blue theme and a clean, professional design. Slide 1: Title - Tumour Markers (Definition and Importance) Slide 2: Introduction - Definition and role in cancer diagnosis and monitoring. Slide 3: Determination Types - Qualitative (histopathologic) and Quantitative (serum/fluids). Slide 4: Ideal Characteristics - High specificity, sensitivity, and organ specificity. Slide 5: Specific Tumour Markers (Part 1) - CEA, AFP, HCG. Slide 6: Specific Tumour Markers (Part 2) - CA 19-9, CA 15-3, CA 27-29. Slide 7: Additional Markers - LDH, NSE. Slide 8: Therapeutic Aspects - Strategy and treatment selection. Slide 9: Main Treatment Modalities - Chemotherapy, Radiotherapy, Surgery; conclusion emphasizing importance of tumour markers. Use soft blue tones for background and white text accents with minimal icons and clean fonts.
9-slide presentation on tumour markers: definition, importance in cancer diagnosis/monitoring, types, ideal traits, key markers (CEA, AFP, HCG, CA19-9, etc.), therapeutic roles, and treatments (chemo,
This title slide is headed "Tumour Markers (Definition and Importance)." Its subtitle reads "Exploring definition, clinical significance in oncology."
Exploring definition, clinical significance in oncology.
This introductory slide outlines biochemical indicators of malignant diseases. They aid early cancer diagnosis, monitor treatment efficacy and response, and detect recurrence at early stages.

The slide contrasts qualitative and quantitative determination types for tumor markers. Qualitative methods use histopathologic analysis of tissue biopsies for initial diagnosis and histology insights, while quantitative assays measure exact levels in serum via ELISA for monitoring progression and treatment response.
| Qualitative | Quantitative |
|---|---|
| Histopathologic analysis based on tissue samples. Involves microscopic examination of tumor biopsies to detect the presence or absence of specific markers. Provides insights into tumor histology and type but lacks precise quantification. Ideal for initial diagnosis and confirmation. | Serum or fluid-based assays measuring exact marker levels. Uses techniques like ELISA or immunoassays for numerical results. Enables monitoring disease progression, treatment response, and early recurrence detection through serial measurements. |
The slide "Ideal Characteristics" lists key qualities for effective tumor markers. These include high specificity (cancer-specific) and sensitivity (detecting most cases), organ specificity, and production solely by tumor—not normal—tissue.
This slide, titled "Specific Tumour Markers (Part 1)," presents a table linking tumor markers to associated cancers. It lists CEA with colorectal cancer, AFP with liver and germ cell cancers, and HCG with germ cell and trophoblastic cancers.

This slide, titled "Specific Tumour Markers (Part 2)," presents a table of tumour markers and their primary associated cancers. It lists CA 19-9 for pancreatic cancer, and CA 15-3 and CA 27-29 for breast cancer.

This slide on Additional Markers highlights LDH elevation in lymphomas and germ cell tumors, plus NSE as a marker for neuroendocrine tumors. These markers support cancer diagnosis and monitor treatment response.

The slide on Therapeutic Aspects outlines establishing baseline marker levels before treatment and monitoring changes to assess therapeutic response. It also covers selecting targeted therapies based on markers to guide personalized treatment strategies.
The slide outlines the main oncology treatment modalities: chemotherapy, radiotherapy, and surgery. It concludes that tumour markers are essential for guiding personalized care and improving outcomes.
