HE4 + ROMA (Earlier Detection of Ovarian Tumour)
The HE4 + ROMA blood test is used to support the assessment of ovarian tumours by estimating the risk that an ovarian mass may be malignant. It combines measurement of the HE4 protein with the Risk of Ovarian Malignancy Algorithm (ROMA).
HE4 is a protein that can be elevated in certain types of ovarian cancer. The ROMA calculation also takes menopausal status into account, helping provide a more accurate risk assessment.
This test is not used as a diagnostic tool on its own. Instead, it supports clinical decision-making when imaging has identified an ovarian mass or when symptoms raise concern.
Early risk assessment helps guide timely referral, further investigation, and appropriate specialist care where needed.
