Objective:The objective of this study is to evaluate the accuracy of manual platelet count estimates by comparing the results of platelet count using the automated counter with the manual method (the use the stained thin blood film) for the same sample at the same time ...
Platelet count of every sample was done by peripheral blood smear and by Mindray (BC5150) automated cell counter, simultaneously. Results: Results by manual slide method are slightly higher than automated method but significantly not different from automated method. Conclusions: Traditional slide ...
normative rates with which manual peripheral blood smears were performed in clinical laboratories, to examine laboratory practices associated with higher or lower manual review rates, and to measure the effects of manual smear review on the efficiency of generating complete blood count (CBC) ...

Complete blood count (CBC) and peripheral smear Flow cytometry of peripheral blood Immunophenotyping The diagnosis of chronic lymphocytic leukemia is first suspected when an absolute peripheral lymphocytosis of>5000/mcL (> 5 × 109/L)) is found. Peripheral blood flow cytometry can confirm clonality ...
Complete blood count(including platelet count), which evaluates all the cellular components of a blood sample Peripheral blood smear(examination of a sample of blood under a microscope to see whether blood cells are damaged, abnormal, or immature) ...
CBC and peripheral smear are the first tests done; pancytopenia and peripheral blasts suggest acute leukemia. Blast cells in the peripheral smear may approach 90% of the white blood cell (WBC) count. Aplastic anemia, viral infections such as infectious mononucleosis, and vitamin B12 deficie...
Only 2.5–4 cm in length on arrival, heartworms rapidly grow within the pulmonary vasculature to adult forms (males ~15 cm long, females ~25 cm). When juvenile heartworms first reach the lungs, blood flow forces them into the more distal small pulmonary arteries of the caudal lung ...

Interferon-gamma (IFN‐gamma) release assay (IGRA): The IGRA, originally developed for diagnosis of M bovis in cattle, has been adapted for dogs, cats, and humans. This test can be done using a heparinized whole blood test from which mononuclear cells are ...
