The diagnostic process involves tests to identify the type of cancer and “staging” to determine whether cancer has spread to other areas of the body. Some of the diagnostic techniques that we use in the process may include digital radiography, ultrasound, CT and MRI scans, tissue biopsies, and cytologic examinations. The specific tests chosen will aim to gain the maximum amount of information in the least invasive manner.
