Dr. Hanif warmly Welcomes you to my virtual clinic HCM!

Biopsy only shows the histologic structure of the specimen i.e what is it made of (the cell types and the their grade of cancer-the level of differentiation from normal to cancerous cells).
But to see if the tumor has spread to other parts of the body or not (the metastasis) we have to go for the CT Scanning. It shows if there are metastasis of the tumor or not.
