LEUKEMIA?

Leukemia is a type of cancer that affects the blood and bone marrow, the spongy center of bones where our blood cells are formed. The disease develops when blood cells produced in the bone marrow grow out of control.

The four most common types of leukemia are:

    acute myeloid leukemia (AML)
    acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL)
    chronic myeloid leukemia (CML)
    chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL)
