If the test comes back with a value greater than the threshold concentration of FDP, it is considered positive. The doctor should follow up with established diagnostic methods for cancer based on the patient history and risk factors in order to appropriately diagnose the patient. A positive result does not necessarily indicate the presence of cancer.
