How is graft versus host disease diagnosed?

Your BMT doctor can make the diagnosis of a GvHD during a physical exam by observing certain symptoms and/or by evaluating the results of site biopsies and lab values.

In the case of chronic graft versus host disease (cGvHD), some symptoms might be very vague, which might make the diagnosis possible only after other causes are excluded.
