Leukemia is a cancer that starts in blood-forming tissues, most often the bone marrow. It leads to abnormal blood cells that can crowd out normal blood production. Leukemia is a clinical diagnosis used in oncology and hematology to classify blood cancers and guide care. The term is commonly used in clinics, hospitals, and labs when blood counts or marrow tests suggest a blood-cell malignancy.
