Haematologist Warsaw and Płock
A haematologist diagnoses and treats disorders related to blood and the haematopoietic system, which includes the liver, spleen, bone marrow, and lymph nodes. Deficiencies in various blood components can lead to disorders such as clotting abnormalities, anaemia, or immune system problems. Blood disorders may result from abnormal functioning of haematopoietic organs or genetic diseases.
What does a consultation with a haematologist involve?
During a visit to a haematologist, the doctor conducts a detailed interview with the patient regarding symptoms, medications taken, chronic illnesses, and family medical history, especially related to haematologic and oncologic conditions. The doctor performs a physical examination, including examination of peripheral lymph nodes, liver, and spleen. Enlargement of these organs can be a symptom of a haematologic disorder.
The most commonly ordered diagnostic tests by a haematologist include:
- complete blood count (CBC)
- coagulation studies including PT/INR, aPTT, platelet count, fibrinogen, evaluation of coagulation factors activity, protein C and S, von Willebrand factor
- iron or ferritin level testing, vitamin B12, folic acid, and iron studies for anaemia diagnosis
- serum protein electrophoresis
- assessment of immunoglobulin levels responsible for the immune system
- bone marrow biopsy
- genetic testing
- lymph node biopsy
- imaging studies of lymph nodes.
