Ewing's Sarcoma Diagnosis
Diagnosis of Ewing's Sarcoma
Examination by your doctor
You should report any symptoms of Ewing's sarcoma to your doctor. Symptoms may be caused by cancer or by other, less serious problems. To find out what is causing your symptoms, your doctor will ask you about these things.
- Your health history
- Your family's history of cancer
- Your lump, if you have one
- Your pain, if you have any
Your doctor will also perform a careful physical exam. If you have a lump, the doctor will look at its size and shape of the lump and the effect it has had on surrounding areas.
Initial tests for Ewing's sarcoma
The doctor may also schedule one or more tests.
Ewing's sarcoma is difficult to distinguish from other similar tumors. Diagnosis is often made by excluding all other common solid tumors, and by the use of genetic studies.
