Hematology
Hematology studies the immunological properties of the three blood elements: white blood cells, red blood cells and platelets.
The field of hematology has made huge strides in the last decade due to advances in genetic research, which has produced more accurate and effective treatments.
The team of hematologists at Hospital Ochoa also care for patients with diseases derived from oncohematology, antithrombotic and anticoagulant treatments. The hospital possesses its own blood bank in order to meet all transfusion needs.
