A member asked:
What if i got blood work done because i only have one kidney and x rays to see if cancer is present would they have notice if i had active tb?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
CXR: Will show if there is concern of active pulmonary TB but it should have been correlated with symptoms. Tb in other sites would not have been known. It also does not show all cancers. Blood work will not show other cancers and you will still need the screening procedures.
