The purpose of the clinic and health promotion activities is to popularize the basic knowledge of multiple myeloma to the general public and non-specialist doctors, and to guide the public to pay attention to the most misdiagnosed hematologic tumor – multiple myeloma, so that “early diagnosis and early treatment” can be achieved. Multiple myeloma (MM) is a malignant proliferative tumor originating from plasma cells in the blood system, and has become the third most common hematologic malignancy after leukemia and lymphoma. However, because it may not manifest in the early stage and may develop symptoms such as anemia, bone pain and renal impairment after progression, it is easily confused with other diseases and therefore has a high rate of misdiagnosis.
