Hematopathology and Blood Disorders Diagnostics

Hematopathology plays a critical role in diagnosing a wide array of blood disorders, from benign hematologic abnormalities to malignant lymphomas and leukemias. Emerging diagnostic approaches, including flow cytometry, cytogenetics, and molecular diagnostics, offer improved specificity and sensitivity in disease classification and monitoring. This session highlights the integration of next-generation sequencing and minimal residual disease (MRD) detection in hematologic malignancies. Discussions will focus on evolving classification systems, therapeutic implications, and the role of multidisciplinary collaboration in diagnostic accuracy. Participants will gain insights into recent breakthroughs that are reshaping the management of blood-related diseases.
