Immunohematology

Immunohematology is the study of immune-related interactions involving blood cells and blood group antigens. It plays a critical role in safe blood transfusion practices by identifying blood types, detecting antibodies, and ensuring donor–recipient compatibility. This field also investigates immune-mediated blood disorders, such as autoimmune hemolytic anemia and transfusion reactions, supporting accurate diagnosis and effective management of immune-related hematologic conditions.
