Haematology
The Haematology unit offers haemostasis, coagulation and special tests. It is primarily dedicated to the study of blood, a determination in which the erythrocyte (red), leukocyte (white) and platelet series are measured globally and as a percentage.
Other parameters are also analysed, such as the screening of coagulation tests and special tests, which help to determine disorders in blood coagulation, and follow-up.
The data obtained can be of great importance in certain pathological situations, of greater or lesser clinical entity, always accompanied by cytological and immune-haematological studies.
