Reports from Hino Municipal Hospital Highlight Recent Findings in Lymphoma (White Blood Cell Count and Lymphocyte-to-monocyte Ratio As a Screening Tool for Predicting Intravascular Lymphoma In the Differential Diagnosis of Fever of Unknown...).

A recent study conducted at Hino Municipal Hospital in Japan focused on using the white blood cell count and lymphocyte-to-monocyte ratio as a screening tool for predicting intravascular lymphoma in patients with fever of unknown origin. The research found that a low white blood cell count and LMR were predictors of an IVLBCL diagnosis, with specific thresholds indicating the need for further invasive procedures. This study highlights the potential clinical utility of these non-invasive tests in diagnosing IVLBCL in patients with FUO. [Extracted from the article]
