Blood and its diseases
View through CrossRef
This chapter looks at blood and its diseases. Blood is an organ linked directly to all other tissues and organs via the vascular system and is composed of three different types of cells: red cells, white cells, and platelets. The chapter then details the role of the haematology laboratory, which offers a comprehensive panel of tests and procedures of great significance to the diagnosis and management of many diseases. It discusses the aetiology, presentation, and treatment of blood cancer, anaemia, and disorders of haemostasis. Finally, the chapter looks at the consequences of haemochromatosis, which is caused by hereditary haemochromatosis (HH) or blood transfusions. It also considers how blood transfusions damage organs such as the liver, heart, and pituitary.
