Clinical haematology is a medical specialty that diagnoses and treats blood illnesses such as anemia, leukemia, lymphoma, and clotting problems. The field employs diagnostic techniques such as blood tests, bone marrow biopsies, and genetic testing. Chemotherapy, targeted therapies, bone marrow transplants, and blood transfusions are all used as treatments. Haematologists interact with oncologists and other doctors to provide complete care.
Course Duration: A postgraduate degree (MD or MSc) in Clinical Haematology typically takes 2-3 years, with a fellowship or DM (Doctorate of Medicine) taking an additional three years. The program integrates theoretical knowledge with clinical experience, with an emphasis on laboratory work and patient care.
