Blood cancers affect the production and function of blood cells and include leukemias, lymphomas, and myeloma. They start in the bone marrow or lymphatic system.
Diagnosed at another hospital? You’re welcome too, with no commitment to start treatment at CION.
Blood cancers affect the production and function of blood cells and include leukemias, lymphomas, and myeloma. They start in the bone marrow or lymphatic system. Treatment is led by haemato-oncologists and may involve chemotherapy, immunotherapy, targeted agents, and referral for transplant where appropriate.
Most of these have other causes too. If one lasts, see a doctor.
Having a risk factor doesn’t mean you will get cancer.
Diagnosis starts with blood counts and peripheral smear, followed by bone marrow aspiration/biopsy, flow cytometry, and molecular tests. Imaging such as PET-CT stages lymphomas.
Many of these tests can be arranged by your CION team in Vizag.
Your plan depends on the type and stage of the cancer and on your overall health. CION’s tumour board agrees on it with you.

Several blood cancers respond very well to modern protocols, and some subtypes can be cured. Outcomes depend on the exact subtype, stage, and response to therapy — your haemato-oncologist will explain what applies to you.
No. Many patients are treated with chemotherapy, targeted drugs, or immunotherapy alone. Transplant is reserved for specific subtypes and relapse situations.
A thin needle takes a small marrow sample from the hip bone under local anaesthesia. It takes a few minutes and is the key test for classifying blood cancers.
