Hematology
Hematology is the branch of medical science that focuses on the study of blood, blood-forming tissues, and disorders related to the blood and its components. At Novo Solitaire Care, we offer a comprehensive range of hematology tests to assess and diagnose various blood-related conditions.
Common Hematology Tests:
Complete Blood Count (CBC):
A CBC is a blood test that provides information about the quantity and quality of different blood cells, including red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets.
It helps diagnose and monitor various blood disorders, anemias, infections, and more.
Blood Smear Examination:
A blood smear examination involves the microscopic examination of a thin layer of blood to assess the shape, size, and appearance of blood cells.
It helps in diagnosing and understanding blood cell abnormalities, such as malaria, leukemia, and certain infections.
Coagulation Studies:
Coagulation studies assess how well blood clots by measuring factors involved in the coagulation process.
These tests help diagnose bleeding disorders like hemophilia and assess the risk of clotting disorders like deep vein thrombosis (DVT).
Bone Marrow Aspiration and Biopsy:
A bone marrow aspiration and biopsy involve the removal of a small amount of bone marrow for examination.
They are essential in diagnosing blood disorders, leukemia, lymphoma, and certain types of anemia.
