It is also employed in the science used for blood transfusion and in establishing blood banks. The word hematology is actually derived from the Greek words “heme” and “logos” which mean blood and reason respectively. The physicians who specialize in this discipline are called hematologists. They are responsible for performing medical procedures concerning the diagnosis and treatment of a variety of blood abnormalities. |
