Imaging

Medical imaging tests are used to assess the condition of the internal organs. These tests may be performed as part of the diagnosis to rule out other conditions that may be causing symptoms, to look for possible signs of leukemia in your internal organ, or to prepare for treatment or as part of follow-up care.
