Haematology is the study of blood and its vital components, including red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets. The Department of Haematology at SMF plays a crucial role in diagnosing and managing a wide range of blood disorders, from common conditions such as anaemia and infections to complex blood cancers. Blood tests often provide critical insights into overall health, making haematology fundamental to early diagnosis, treatment planning, and life-saving care. The department supports both diagnostic and therapeutic decision-making across multiple specialities.
