Hi. To diagnosis alopecia, what kind of tests would i have to go through? I have been told that it would require different tests like blood test, sonography, xrays. I still wonder why an xray is needed for a disease wherein my immunity is causing the whole thing.

Alopecia areata can be diagnosed clinically. It comes with bald patches. But you have not mentioned your diagnosis. Please call me and visit my clinic or send photos using online consult for proper examination diagnosis and treatment advice.
