Overview

  • Computed tomography (CT) scan and biopsy: CT scans are often used to diagnose leiomyosarcoma. It can confirm the location of the sarcoma and show the organs nearby. These are helpful for determining the stage of the cancer and in determining whether surgery is a good treatment option. CT scans can also be used to guide biopsy and a biopsy sample is usually removed and looked at under a microscope.
