2. Introduction
● Haematology mainly involves the study of blood. In General, haematology
tests are performed to diagnose many health and disease conditions.
● Hematology tests include tests on the blood, blood proteins and
blood-producing organs.
● These tests can evaluate a variety of blood conditions including infection,
anaemia, inflammation, haemophilia, blood clotting disorders, leukaemia and
much more.

3. The common haematology tests include full blood count testing,
● White blood Cells testing
● Red Blood Cells testing
● Haemoglobin testing
● Hematocrit and Platelets
● Mono screening
● Vitamin B12 Deficiency testing
● Renal profiling
● Cholesterol testing
● Blood glucose testing

4. Full Blood Count Testing
● Full blood count Testing is a routine test that evaluates three major
components in the blood.
● They are White Blood Cells (WBC), Red Blood Cells (RBC) and
platelets.
● There are many reasons for conducting a full blood count test, but
common reasons include infection, anaemia and suspected haematoma
oncological disease.

5. White blood cells testing
● WBC’s are responsible for assisting the body’s defences in fighting illness
and disease.
● People who are fighting infection or suffering from anaemia have an
increased number of White Blood Cells.

6. RBC testing
● Through dehydration, stress, anxiety or failure of the bone marrow, the
number of red blood cells in the body can be increased.
● Also sometimes the count of red blood cells may decrease in number as a
result of chemotherapy treatments, chronic inflammations, blood loss and
due to some types of cancer.

7. Hematocrit
● Hematocrit is another important parameter as it is the
ratio of plasma to red blood cells.
● This test is usually carried out when hydration levels
and anaemia are suspected of causing problems.
● The main function of the platelets is to clot the blood
whenever it is needed.

8. ● If these platelets are absent, the blood would continue to flow from the wound
and need immediate medical attention in order to stem the flow, Increased
platelets levels may also occur as a result of inflammatory conditions such as
trauma, acute infection and number of malignant cancers.
● Likewise, as a result of anaemia, coagulation disorders such as sickle cell
anaemia, alcohol toxicity and infection can lead to cause a decrease in the
number of platelets.

9. Vitamin B12 deficiency testing
● A lack of Vitamin B12 can make the patient feel tired, run-down and
without energy. With the help of some simple blood tests, we can detect
whether vitamin B12 levels are decreased.
● This vitamin is essential for healthy blood cells, healthy nerves and stable
DNA.
● If a deficiency is detected, this condition is easy to manage with
supplements, changes to the diet and vitamin shots.

10. Cholesterol Checking
● If the cholesterol level is increased above a certain level it may lead to
several heart diseases and other potentially fatal conditions.
● With the help of a cholesterol test, the patient can take action to lower blood
cholesterol.

11. Conclusion
● Haematology tests can be performed in all medical laboratories and clinics
located anywhere in the world.
● In Dubai, there are so many medical laboratories which offer these
haematology tests.
● From the recent studies and surveys, the best haematology test in Dubai is
provided by the FML.
