Mesothelioma Diagnosis


St. Louis Asbestos Exposure Attorneys Serving Clients Nationwide

If you have been exposed to asbestos on the job and you are experiencing any symptoms of mesothelioma, it is important to visit your physician as soon as possible. The first step in a diagnosis of mesothelioma is to provide a full and accurate medical history to your doctor, including the types of symptoms you are currently experiencing. You should also mention your exposure to asbestos.

Mesothelioma patients usually are diagnosed within three to six months of their first doctor visit. Patients will undergo a physical examination where a doctor will test for the causes of the symptoms being displayed. Further testing is often necessary. At Brown & Crouppen, we can help you understand your rights and options if you are concerned about asbestos exposure and potential mesothelioma or related conditions.

Did you know? Companies knew as far back as the 1920s that asbestos exposure could result in lung cancer and mesothelioma. Yet, these companies chose profits over safety, and workers paid the price. It is important to hold them accountable.

Missouri Mesothelioma Diagnosis Lawyers

The next step in receiving a diagnosis of mesothelioma is to test to confirm the presence of the condition, as well as the size of the cancer involved and if it has spread to the rest of the body. This involves tests such as:

  • Chest X-rays
  • CT Scans
  • PET scans
  • MRI scans
  • Biopsy tests
  • Thorascopy
  • Bronchoscopy
  • Laparoscopy

After a diagnosis is made, the oncologist will determine the best options for mesothelioma treatment and the available resources to help make coping as easy as possible. Our firm is here to provide compassionate legal representation to individuals and their families dealing with this terrible disease.

“The professionalism here is to be admired. I was always treated with courtesy and kindness and was made to feel like family.” – David H.
