What is hemo oncology?

Hemato-oncology, or hematologic oncology, is a specialized branch of medicine that focuses on diagnosing and treating blood cancers, including leukemia, lymphoma, and multiple myeloma. It encompasses a combination of hematology, which deals with blood disorders, and oncology, which addresses cancer.
