Welcome to an informative session with Dr. Anshul Gupta, leading Hematologist at Medanta, Lucknow, where he explains everything you need to know about Chronic Myeloid Leukemia (CML)—a type of blood cancer that affects white blood cells.

🩸 What is Chronic Myeloid Leukemia (CML)?
CML is a slow-growing blood and bone marrow cancer caused by a genetic mutation known as the Philadelphia chromosome (BCR-ABL fusion gene). It results in the overproduction of abnormal white blood cells, leading to various health complications.

🔬 Causes & Risk Factors:
✔️ Genetic mutation (BCR-ABL)
✔️ Exposure to high radiation levels
✔️ Age factor (common in middle-aged & older adults)
✔️ Family history (rare but possible)

⚠️ Common Symptoms of CML:
🔴 Persistent fatigue & weakness
🔴 Unexplained weight loss
🔴 Night sweats
🔴 Enlarged spleen (causing abdominal discomfort)
🔴 Easy bruising & excessive bleeding
🔴 Frequent infections

🩺 Diagnosis & Tests for CML:
To confirm CML, doctors use:
✅ Complete Blood Count (CBC)
✅ Bone Marrow Biopsy
✅ Genetic Testing for the Philadelphia Chromosome

💊 Treatment Options for CML:
The good news is CML is treatable! Modern therapies help patients lead a normal life:
🔹 Targeted Therapy (Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitors - TKIs): Imatinib, Dasatinib, Nilotinib
🔹 Chemotherapy: Used in advanced cases
🔹 Bone Marrow Transplant: Recommended for resistant cases
🔹 Supportive Therapy: Helps manage symptoms

📌 Can CML Be Cured?
While CML is not always curable, early diagnosis & proper treatment can help patients achieve long-term remission & improved quality of life.
