bilan morphologique

Medical
Medical: Health Care
Assesment of blood count
This is a heading in a long hospital report about a patient with acute respiratory problems.
The first heading reads: "Bilan biologique du [date]" (which I have called "Findings of blood and urine tests from [date]")
The queried phrase is the title of the next section. For consistency, could I say "morphological findings"? Although I am dubious of using "morphological", surely UK English has another term for this.

Radiology and Imaging Tests, Imaging Tests
Bilan biologique = Laboratory tests; Bilan morphologique = Radiology and Imaging Tests or simply Imaging Tests. If you are not very keen on parallelism, you can skip tests and simply say Radiology and Imaging.
Discussion
We wouldn't use "morphological findings" in this context in English.
