Overview
Laboratory findings consistent with the diagnosis of chronic myelogenous leukemia include leukocytosis, thrombocytopenia, and anemia.
Laboratory Findings
CML is often suspected on the basis on the complete blood count, which shows increased granulocytes of all types, typically including immature myeloid cells. Basophils and eosinophils are almost universally increased; this feature may help differentiate CML from a leukemoid reaction.
