Neuroblastoma Package - Book at an Affordable Price

Neuroblastoma is a type of cancer that begins from immature nerve cells called neuroblasts. It is the most common extracranial solid tumor in children, typically occurring in the adrenal glands above the kidneys or in the nerve tissue along the spine, neck, chest, or abdomen. Neuroblastoma can also spread to other parts of the body, such as the bones, bone marrow, liver, and lymph nodes.

Neuroblastoma usually affects infants and young children, although it can occur at any age. The cause of neuroblastoma is largely unknown, but certain genetic mutations and chromosomal abnormalities have been associated with an increased risk of developing the disease.

The symptoms of neuroblastoma depend on the location and size of the tumor and may include abdominal pain or swelling, a lump or mass in the abdomen or neck, bone pain, fatigue, fever, weight loss, changes in skin color or texture, and changes in bowel or bladder habits.

Our Neuroblastoma Test Package Includes:

Diagnosis of neuroblastoma involves a thorough medical history, physical examination, imaging studies (such as X-rays, ultrasound, CT scan, MRI, and MIBG scan), and laboratory tests (such as blood and urine tests). Biopsy, which involves taking a small sample of tissue for examination under a microscope, is usually required for definitive diagnosis.
