Hematology is the medical field that diagnoses and treats diseases of the blood, bone marrow, and blood-making organs in our body; oncology is the field that treats cancers and tumors. Pediatric hematology/oncology deals with diagnosing, treating and managing these diseases, cancers and tumors in children and teens.
Diagnosing and managing blood disorders in children and adolescents require particular care and skill because it deals with disease management during their crucial growth and development phase, unlike in fully developed adults.
