Abstract
In this chapter, we have tried to cover points most pertinent for psychiatrists, or other subspecialists, attending to hematology and oncology problems of their patients, or for those concerned with the interface of medical problems and psychiatry. Psychiatry, as well as other disciplines, has a considerable amount to offer these patients with regard to detection of illnesses and treatment of psychiatric consequences (such as depression). Table 3.1 summarizes common disorders and treatments.
