Some types of cancer can be diagnosed this way, such as lukemia. However, most cancers have to be diagnosed by taking a biopsy of the tissue of the suspect area.

my brother had a blood test and they found abnormalities in it. Such as the white blood cell count being very very high and the lack of iron is his blood stream.
This made the doctor take more tests and my brother found out he had cancer.
He has a cancer called G.I.S.T (abbreviated) so its not just lukemia that can be found this way.

well sometimes your white cell count will be extremely high. i think that is usually a sign of lukemia, but i'm not sure. there are other factors though to be warning signs of cancer. but if you just so happened to be at the doctor and were going for your annual checkup and blood work, then the cells would be the first sign.

The patient should undergo different types of blood test such as complete blood count, hemoglobin, hematocrit, ESR and all blood examination in order for the doctor to determine with you the abnormality of your body . If there is abnormalitie on the results of your blood, the doctor can able to determine what particular diagnosis he had to do with the patient.

Cancer is defined as abnormal cells that metastisize, meaning that they travel through the blood and establish other tumors in different areas in the body. Your blood can tell you if you have cancer, since cancer is transported through it.
