Hematology
Analysis of blood cells and clotting — from full blood counts to coagulation studies.
Hematology examines the cellular components of blood and the body's clotting system. These tests help clinicians investigate and monitor conditions such as anaemia, infections, bleeding and clotting disorders and blood cancers.
Common hematology tests include full blood count (FBC/CBC), ESR, peripheral blood film, blood grouping, malaria screening and coagulation tests such as PT/INR and APTT.
