HE4 with ROMA Index Test
HE4 with ROMA Index Test: Ovarian Cancer Risk Assessment
Direct answer: The HE4 with ROMA index test measures human epididymis protein-4 (HE4) levels and calculates the Risk of Ovarian Malignancy Algorithm (ROMA) score to assess ovarian cancer risk.
HE4 is a tumour marker protein released by certain ovarian cancer cells. The ROMA index combines HE4 results with CA-125 values and menopausal status to estimate the probability of ovarian malignancy. This test is advised when pelvic imaging shows an ovarian mass or when persistent abdominal symptoms require cancer risk evaluation. Sample collection is available through our Home Collection Facility across Pune or at our Direct Walk-in Facility in Aundh and nearby areas.
Why is the HE4 with ROMA index test advised?
Direct answer: This test helps assess the likelihood of ovarian cancer and supports early specialist referral.
Doctors interpret HE4 and ROMA index results along with ultrasound findings for accurate clinical decisions. Learn more about women’s health testing in our health articles, view sample guidance in test preparation guides, or compare preventive profiles on comparison resources.

Frequently Asked Questions
When should I do an HE4 with ROMA index test?
This test is advised when an ovarian mass is detected or when ovarian cancer risk needs evaluation.
Is fasting required before this test?
Fasting is not required. Normal food and water intake is allowed before sample collection.
What does a high ROMA index indicate?
A high ROMA score suggests increased risk of ovarian malignancy and requires specialist assessment.
