My down syndrome and pauda syndrome is negative but afp level above 2.5 .. should i need to be worried?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
AFP is measured in nanograms per milliliter (ng/mL), with normal levels less than 20 ng/mL. Levels above 400 ng/mL may indicate a liver tumor or other cancer. ref: https://www.cancercenter.com/diagnosing-cancer/diagnostic-procedures/tumor-markers/alpha-fetoprotein-afp
