Monitoring

Patients with AML should be closely monitored for recurrence of the disease and development of complications.

For patients with an AML-defining genetic abnormality detected at diagnosis, testing for the abnormality should be repeated during and after completion of treatment to monitor for residual disease.[24]​ For patients without such abnormalities, regular routine full blood count to detect any cytopenias is recommended.
