Int J Biol Markers. 1994 Oct-Dec;9(4):205-10. doi: 10.1177/172460089400900401.

Abstract

The clinical value of neuron-specific enolase as a marker is small cell lung cancer, neuroblastoma, melanoma and seminoma has been reviewed. The role of serum and cerebrospinal NSE in benign and malignant disease of the central nervous system is discussed.
