MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging): Uses magnetic fields and radio waves to produce detailed images of the inside of the body. CT Scans (Computed Tomography): Use X-rays to create cross-sectional images of the body. Ultrasound: Uses high-frequency sound waves to create images of internal organs. PET Scans (Positron Emission Tomography): Uses radioactive substances to visualize metabolic activity in tissues.
Tumor Markers: Substances sometimes found at higher levels in the blood when cancer is present. Circulating Tumor DNA: Fragments of DNA shed by tumors into the bloodstream.
