What is Hematology?
Hematology,is
the branch of biology physiology, internal medicine, pathology,
clinical laboratory work, and
pediatrics that is concerned with the study of blood, the
blood-forming organs, and blood diseases. Hematology includes
the study of etiology, diagnosis, treatment, prognosis, and
prevention of blood diseases. The laboratory work that goes into
the study of blood is frequently performed by a medical
technologist. Hematologists physicians also very frequently do
further study in oncology, the medical treatment of cancer.
Physicians specialized in hematology are known ashematologists.
Their routine work mainly includes the care and treatment of
patients with hematological diseases, although some may also
work at the hematology laboratory viewing blood films and bone
marrow slides under the microscope, interpreting various
hematological test results. In some institutions, hematologists
also manage the hematology laboratory. Physicians who work in
hematology laboratories, and most commonly manage them, are
pathologists specialized in the diagnosis of hematological
diseases, referred to ashematopathologists.
Hematologists and hematopathologists generally work in
conjunction to formulate a diagnosis and deliver the most
appropriate therapy if needed. Hematology is a distinct
subspecialty of internal medicine, separate from but overlapping
with the subspecialty of medical oncology.
