Blood Cancer care at Karuna

Blood cancer begins in the blood, bone marrow or lymph nodes, where abnormal cells grow out of control and crowd out healthy blood cells. It includes leukaemia, lymphoma and multiple myeloma, and each type behaves and is treated differently.

Our haemato-oncology team confirms the exact type with marrow, laboratory and imaging tests, then builds a treatment plan around your age, health and the biology of your disease. Blood components, infection control and ICU care are available round the clock.

Frequently asked questions

Straight answers to what patients and families ask most.

Is blood cancer curable?

It depends on the type, the stage, your age and the genetic features of the disease. Many blood cancers are treatable and some can be cured, while others are controlled for many years. Your doctor can give you a realistic outlook once all tests are complete.

Is blood cancer contagious or hereditary?

It is not contagious. Most cases are not inherited, although a few genetic conditions slightly raise the risk. Your doctor will tell you if family screening is advised.

Can a normal blood test detect it?

A complete blood count can raise suspicion, but confirming blood cancer usually needs a bone marrow or lymph node biopsy and specialised tests.

Does every patient need a stem cell transplant?

No. Many patients are treated with medicines alone. Transplant is considered only for selected patients, depending on the disease type and how it responds.

Do I need a referral to consult a specialist at Karuna?

No referral is needed. You can book an appointment directly through the enquiry form or by calling our helpline, and our care team will guide you on the next steps.
