Haematology
Clinical Haematology (Hematology) is the branch of medicine concerned with the study of causes and diseases related to blood. It focuses on treating disorders affecting the production of blood and its components (blood cells, haemoglobin, blood proteins, bone marrow, platelets, blood vessels, spleen and the mechanism of coagulation). Some common disorders of the blood are different types of anaemia, clotting and bleeding disorders, haemoglobinopathies and blood cancers (leukaemia, lymphoma and multiple myeloma). The branch could be a window to simple anaemia or an underlying complex condition like a malignancy. From the varied ailments, some are easily treated, and others require prolonged intervention.
PIOS Hospital,Haematology Department offers comprehensive care across the spectrum of blood-related disorders, from simple deficiency to complex malignant haematological conditions. Our centre is a one-stop destination for rapid diagnosis, timely treatment and excellent follow-up care for all patient age groups.
We are leading in the city to provide customised therapy options for any stage of blood cancer. Patients can avail advanced diagnostic techniques (immunohistochemistry), multiple leading-edge medical and radiation care options (chemotherapy), minimally invasive procedures (including robot-assisted) and modern treatments (bone marrow transplant). Pivotal to our haematology program is access to an ecosystem focused on health education, advanced care, and restoring psychosocial and mental well-being for a better quality of life, extending to post-treatment through patient support groups.
The clinical hematology department has a comprehensive team of experts who are trained and experienced in Haematology, Onco-haematology and haemato-pathology, with the able 24 by 7 support of a blood bank and laboratory.
