Haematology and cardio-oncology represent two critical areas of medical specialisation that address the interactions between blood disorders, cancer, and cardiovascular health. Understanding the interplay between hematologic conditions, cancer treatments, and cardiovascular risks is essential for optimising patient care and improving outcomes.
Overview of Hematology
Hematology is the branch of medicine that focuses on the study, diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of blood disorders. This includes a wide range of conditions affecting red blood cells, white blood cells, platelets, and the coagulation system
Overview of Cardio-Oncology
Cardio-oncology is an emerging field that focuses on the cardiovascular complications associated with cancer and its treatment. As cancer therapies improve and survival rates increase, it has become increasingly important to address the cardiovascular risks that may arise from cancer treatments
