Hematology is the study of blood & blood disease. Hematology includes the diagnosis of various blood disorders and malignancies, such as hemophilia, leukemia, myeloma, sickle-cell anemia etc.
Blood coagulation is a process that changes circulating substances within the blood into an insoluble gel plug which adheres at the site of blood vessels injury and stops the loss of blood. Disorders of coagulation can result in bleeding (hemorrhage or bruising) or clotting (thrombosis).
Biochemistry is the application of chemistry to the study of biological processes at cellular & molecular level. Biochemistry provides qualitative and quantitative analysis of biological fluids such as blood, serum or plasma, urine, or tissues for specific chemical constituents or physiologic processes. Physicians use these test results to screen for, diagnose or monitor disease.
Immunology is the study of the body's immune system and its functions and disorders. Serology is the study of blood serum. Immunology & Serology mainly focus on :- Identifying antibodies, Investigating problems with the immune system , Determining organ, tissue, and fluid compatibility for transplantation.

Clinical pathology supports the diagnosis of disease using laboratory testing of blood, urine and other bodily fluids, tissues, and microscopic evaluation of individual cells.
Microbiology is the study of all living organisms that are too small to be visible with the naked eye. This includes bacteria, viruses, fungi and protozoa, collectively known as microbes. These microbes play key roles in cause and control of disease.
Cytopathology is a diagnostic technique that examines cells from various body sites to determine the cause or the nature of disease. It includes FNAC, body fluid examination, PAP Smear etc.
Histopathology refers to the microscopic examination of tissue in order to study the manifestations of disease. Specifically, in clinical medicine, histopathology refers to the examination of a biopsy or surgical specimen by a pathologist, after the specimen has been processed and histological sections have been placed onto glass slides.
