Overview

Laboratory tests for Hodgkin's lymphoma include complete blood count (CBC), blood chemistry studies, HIV blood test, immunohistochemistry, erythrocyte sedimentation rate, and immunophenotyping.

Laboratory Tests

Laboratory tests for Hodgkin's lymphoma include the following:[1][2]

  • Help rule out infection
  • Assess how well the blood-forming organs (such as the bone marrow and spleen) are working and to see if HL cells have spread to the bone marrow
  • Provide a baseline for future blood counts taken during and after treatment
