Hemato-oncology

Hemato-oncology is a branch of medicine that focuses on cancers related to blood and bone marrow, including leukemias, lymphomas, and multiple myeloma. It combines hematology, the study of blood and blood disorders, with oncology, the study of cancer. Specialists in this field diagnose and treat these conditions, often using advanced techniques such as blood tests, biopsies, and imaging. Hematopathology is a related discipline that involves examining blood, bone marrow, and lymphoid tissues under a microscope to identify diseases, helping to guide treatment decisions for patients with blood cancers.
