PRCA patients should all have a CT scan. I hadn't heard of them as routine for AA.

FYI: At the recent patient Conference in Detroit Dr. Maciejewski mentioned that one theory of AA is that the autoimmune response was an overreaction to the immune system attacking a leukemia. The reason for this theory is that they have found some miscellaneous leukemia DNA in some cases.
