Abstract
Hematopathology plays a critical role in diagnosing and managing hematological disorders, including leukemias, lymphomas, myeloproliferative neoplasms, and other blood-related diseases. Advances in molecular biology, immunophenotyping, flow cytometry, and computational diagnostics have significantly transformed the field. This cross-sectional analytical study evaluates recent advancements in hematopathological diagnostic methodologies using 224 hematological diagnostic cases. Integrated multi-modal diagnostic approaches combining molecular testing, immunophenotyping, and digital pathology significantly improve classification accuracy, achieving 96.4% classification contribution rate and 92.6% critical finding rate for the full integrated approach (F=8.14, p=0.001). The study highlights the importance of multidisciplinary diagnostic frameworks, molecular diagnostics, and digital technologies in modern hematopathology.
