Following a physical examination, various advanced tests may be requested to diagnose amyloidosis, determine its underlying cause, and assess the disease's effects on organs. Bone marrow aspiration and biopsy can be performed to identify the mutated protein responsible for the specific type of amyloidosis. In addition, the following tests may also be applied to the patient:
* Complete Blood Count (CBC): Performed to detect abnormal protein levels in the blood.
* Urinalysis: Checks for abnormal protein levels in the urine.
* Computed Tomography (CT): Used to visualize potential damage and disease spread in affected organs.
* Echocardiography: A test performed to evaluate whether the heart is affected by amyloidosis.
