A CA125 blood test is useful in diagnosing the cause of a pelvic swelling. In addition hormone tests can help to identify the cause of abnormal vaginal bleeding.
Our Service
We have developed this service with Mr Angus McIndoe (Gynaecological Oncologist)and Mr Roberto Dina (Pathologist) to facilitate the rapid diagnosis of a variety of common gynaecological problems. We aim to get the results back to you within 48 hours.
The Rapid Diagnostic Service can clarify quickly why you have abnormal symptoms or test results. To make your investigation as convenient as possible, we can organise a number of tests on the same day. The tests that are chosen depend upon your particular symptoms and will vary from woman to woman.
