Hematologic Oncology

Hematologic oncology is a branch of medicine that focuses on cancers related to the blood, bone marrow, and lymphatic system. This includes diseases such as leukemia, lymphoma, and multiple myeloma. Hematologic oncologists diagnose and treat these conditions using various methods, including chemotherapy, radiation therapy, and stem cell transplants. They specialize in understanding how these cancers develop and spread, as well as managing symptoms and improving patients’ quality of life. Their goal is to provide personalized care and support for individuals affected by blood cancers.
