Haematology

Haematology is the branch of medicine focused on the study of blood, its components, and related disorders. It involves understanding how blood cells—such as red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets—function, how they are produced in the bone marrow, and how they interact in the body. Haematologists diagnose and treat conditions like anemia, blood clotting disorders, and cancers such as leukemia. They use various laboratory tests to analyze blood samples and guide treatment decisions, ensuring optimal health related to blood and its functions within the body.
