Diagnosis of toxin-induced anemia involves a combination of clinical evaluation, laboratory testing, and exposure history. Key diagnostic tests include:
Complete blood count (CBC) to assess RBC, hemoglobin, and hematocrit levels. Blood smear examination to detect morphological changes in RBCs. Biochemical assays to measure levels of specific toxins or their metabolites. Bone marrow biopsy if marrow suppression is suspected.
