Diagnosing mesothelioma
Diagnosing mesothelioma is often difficult, because the symptoms can be confused with those of a number of other conditions. Diagnosis begins with a review of the patient's medical history, especially any history of asbestos exposure. A complete physical examination may be performed, including x-rays of the chest or abdomen and lung function tests. A CT (or CAT) scan or an MRI may also be useful.
