Leukemia is a cancer of the white blood cells that starts in the bone marrow. It can be acute (developing quickly) or chronic (progressing slowly).
Diagnosed at another hospital? You’re welcome too, with no commitment to start treatment at CION.
Leukemia is a cancer of the white blood cells that starts in the bone marrow. It can be acute (developing quickly) or chronic (progressing slowly). Treatment is subtype-specific and may include chemotherapy, targeted tablets, immunotherapy, and transplant referral for selected patients.
Most of these have other causes too. If one lasts, see a doctor.
Having a risk factor doesn’t mean you will get cancer.
Blood counts and peripheral smear raise suspicion; bone marrow examination with flow cytometry, cytogenetics, and molecular panels classify the leukemia precisely and guide therapy.
Many of these tests can be arranged by your CION team at CION L.B. Nagar.
Your plan depends on the type and stage of the cancer and on your overall health. CION’s tumour board agrees on it with you.
