What is Hemato Oncology?

Hemato Oncology is the study, diagnosis and treatment of blood diseases and cancer. Like other cancer, blood cancer involves rapid growth of abnormal cells in the blood preventing it from performing important functions. This cancer begins in the bone marrow, where blood is formed.

There are different types of blood cancer like lymphoma, Leukemia, myeloma, and myeloproliferative neoplasm (MPN). Each of these has different symptoms, treatments and effects.
