Haematology

Haematology is a branch of medicine and a subspecialty of internal medicine. It
focuses on the study, diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of diseases that can cause
abnormalities in the blood and its various components, which include the blood cells,
blood proteins, hemoglobin, platelets, and blood vessels, as well as the organs that
are responsible for producing blood, namely the bone marrow and the spleen.
Doctors who specialize in this branch of medicine are called haematologists, who have
received two to three years of specialized training in haematology after they completed
their medical degree, internship, and residency.
