Can radiology be used to diagnose graft-versus-host disease?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Physical examination: ...and biopsies are the mainstay of diagnosis of graft vs. host disease. Radiology is used mostly to exclude other causes of symptoms, such as an ultrasound of the liver to exclude biliary obstruction, or CT of the chest to exclude infection.
