Core Tip	Carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) is not normally produced in significant quantities after birth but is mainly elevated in colorectal cancer and some other pathologies. CEA is widely used not only for diagnostic tumor markers but also importantly for the management of some gastrointestinal tumors. In this study, the relationship of CEA with clinical, radiological, and histopathological evaluations in the diagnosis and treatment of focal liver lesions detected in the liver was evaluated with a holistic approach.
