Overview
aematology is a branch of medicine that focuses on the study and treatment of blood disorders and diseases. It encompasses the diagnosis, treatment, and management of conditions that affect the blood, bone marrow, and lymphatic system. Haematologists play a crucial role in maintaining the health and well-being of individuals by ensuring proper functioning of the blood and its components.
Conditions We Treat
We offer comprehensive diagnosis, treatment, and management for a wide range of haematological conditions, including:
Anaemia
Our haematologists are experienced in diagnosing and managing different types of anaemia, such as iron-deficiency anaemia, vitamin deficiency anaemia, haemolytic anaemia, and aplastic anaemia. We provide tailored treatment plans that may involve iron supplements, blood transfusions, or medications to address the underlying causes.
Leukaemia
We specialize in the diagnosis and treatment of different types of leukaemia, including acute lymphoblastic leukaemia (ALL), acute myeloid leukaemia (AML), chronic lymphocytic leukaemia (CLL), and chronic myeloid leukaemia (CML). Our haematologists collaborate closely with oncologists and other specialists to develop individualized treatment strategies, which may involve chemotherapy, targeted therapy, bone marrow transplantation, or immunotherapy.
Lymphoma
We diagnose and treat various types of lymphoma, including Hodgkin lymphoma and non-Hodgkin lymphoma. Our haematologists employ advanced imaging techniques and lymph node biopsies to accurately diagnose and stage the disease. Treatment options may include chemotherapy, radiation therapy, immunotherapy, or stem cell transplantation.
Thrombosis and Hemostasis Disorders
Our team provides expert management of conditions related to blood clotting and bleeding disorders. We offer diagnosis and treatment for deep vein thrombosis (DVT), pulmonary embolism (PE), thrombophilia, haemophilia, von Willebrand disease, and other clotting disorders. Treatment plans may involve anticoagulant medications, blood transfusions, or clotting factor replacement therapies.
Bone Marrow Disorders
We diagnose and manage various bone marrow disorders, including myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS), myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPNs), and aplastic anaemia. Our haematologists utilize advanced techniques such as bone marrow biopsies, cytogenetic studies, and molecular testing to determine the most appropriate treatment options, which may include targeted therapies, immunosuppressive therapy, or bone marrow transplantation.
