Overview
Nodular masses suggestive of central lymphadenopathy are suggestive of acute lymphoblastic leukemia on chest x-ray.
Chest X ray
Chest x-ray may be helpful in the diagnosis of acute lymphoblastic leukemia. Findings on an x-ray suggestive of acute lymphoblastic leukemia include:[1]
- Nodular masses [2]
- Central lymphadenopathy, such as mediastinal lymph node enlargement
