Title
"Φεροπρωτεϊνη-άλφα" ("ΦΠ-Α") είναι ένα μόριο...
Translation
Greek

Translated by Pixiemel
Target language: Greek

Η "Φεροπρωτεϊνη-άλφα" ('''ΦΠ-''') είναι ένα μόριο το οποίο παράγεται μέσα στο αναπτυσσόμενο [[έμβρυο]]. Οι εξετάσεις αίματος που γίνονται για να μετρήσουν την Φεροπρωτεϊνη-Α έχουν δύο κύριες εφαρμογές: (1) σε εγκύους, σαν διαγνωστική εξέταση για κάποια ειδη [[σύμφυτης δυσμορφίας]] και (2) σε ενήλικες και παιδιά σαν [[δείκτης όγκου]] για κάποια είδη [[όγκων]].
Remarks about the translation
editor's note: Embryo and foetus are both translated as έμβρυο since there is no differentiating terminology depending on how developed the embryo/foetus is. If no indication of time exists, it is assumed that we are talking about the whole length of pregnancy
