Question 3 • AA - S26 Introduction to Healthcare Science

A healthcare worker is looking at a biopsy of the liver and notices clumps of abnormal-looking liver cells. What will most likely happen next?

Answer
A
The patient will be diagnosed with a bacterial infection.
B
The patient will be diagnosed with cancer.
C
More tests will be done to determine if the cells are bacteria.
D
More tests will be done to determine if the cells are cancerous.

Explanation

Abnormal-looking clumps of liver cells can be a sign of cancer, but their appearance alone may not confirm it. The healthcare team will most likely do additional tests to determine whether the cells are cancerous. Bacterial infection is less likely because the clumps described are liver cells, not bacteria.
