Relating to blood and its diseases

is the -ical adjective form with identical meaning in medical contexts

Surface Forms

hematological positive

Morphology

hematological = hematology (transparent) = hemat + ology + ical

The adjective is a standard scholarly formation from the noun 'hematology' plus the adjectival suffix '-ical', so the meaning is directly recoverable if the base is known.

Etymology

Hematological comes from Greek parts: hema- from 'haima' meaning 'blood' and -logy meaning 'study'. You can see hema- in familiar words like hemoglobin and hemorrhage, so hematological means 'relating to the study of blood'.
