Hematology

Hematology studies diseases of the blood, bone marrow, and coagulation system, from anemias to myeloproliferative neoplasms.

• Anemia (iron deficiency, B12/folate, hemolytic, aplastic)
• Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT, Virchow's triad, anticoagulation)
• Disseminated Intravascular Coagulation (DIC, ISTH scoring, consumptive coagulopathy)
• Hemochromatosis (iron overload, HFE mutations, phlebotomy)
• Hemophilia (factor VIII/IX deficiency, emicizumab, gene therapy)
• Polycythemia Vera (JAK2 V617F, myeloproliferative neoplasm, ruxolitinib)
• Sickle Cell Disease (HbS, vaso-occlusive crises, hydroxyurea)
• Thalassemia (alpha and beta, transfusion-dependent, iron chelation)
• Thrombocytopenia (ITP, HIT, TTP, platelet transfusion thresholds)
• Von Willebrand Disease (VWF subtypes, DDAVP, VWF replacement)
