Referral and diagnosis
Many patients arrive with a blood count abnormality, an imaging finding or a biopsy report but no clear diagnosis. The first step is to review the available material and decide what is missing. A bone marrow test, flow cytometry, cytogenetics or molecular testing may be needed. Dr. Baniya explains why each test is being requested and what result would change the plan.
