Are you able to recognize and identify the various formed elements? You will need to do this is a systematic manner, scanning along the image. The standard method is to use a grid, but this is not possible with this resource. Try constructing a simple table with each leukocyte type and then making a mark for each cell type you identify. Attempt to classify at least 50 and perhaps as many as 100 different cells. Based on the percentage of cells that you count, do the numbers represent a normal blood smear or does something appear to be abnormal?
Using a slide containing reticulocytes, compare the staining and structure of a reticulocyte and an erythrocyte. .
In hematology laboratory, automation has been the ongoing trend in terms of cell sorting and identification. Do you think it is about time to phase out the manual method of blood cell counting and identification in this area? Why or why not?

- I will make your life a bit easier and not make you count four additional grids. So let's assume this was a random, relatively uniform sample and arbitrarily assign the other four squares to the exact same number of red blood cells. What is the Total red blood cell count? Calculate it as (#RBC you counted *5)*10,000 Is you answer normal?

I just need help with counting how many of each type of WBC there are (example: Lymphocyes-15, Segmented Neutrophils-12, monocytes-7, basophils-3, etc.) **** please note the smudged cells don't need to be counted!

- You are performing an experiment to diagnose three patients who are ill. In a hematology lab, you run a CBC using the hematology analyzer on all 3 of your patience blood samples, once you collect that data, you then conduct a blood smear/stain to get a better look at the 3 patients blood cells and compare those results to those of the CBC report. You conclude that patient 1 has malaria, patient 2 has sickle cell anemia, and patient 3 has hemophilia.

The woman claimed that she as attacked by her former husband. The man had a cut on his hand, which he explained as a cut from a broken water glass. Is the unknown sample from her wound, from her former husband, or from an unknown third person? Answer: The unknown sample is from her wound. -From the same case, a second blood sample was collected from a stain on the floor of the former husband's home (Figure 1.17). Is this stain from the woman, her former husband, or an unknown third person? Answer: The stain on the floor is from her former husband. A third blood sample was collected from a knife in the alley two blocks from the woman's home (Figure 1.18). Is this stain from the woman, her former husband, or an unknown third person?

- please fill in the charts as the directions states i have included the 2 pictures you need to look at in order Arrange the key and blood smear side by side so that both are visible Use the tally charts below to record the counts for your patient as you go. To count: Start in the upper left corner of the first photo. Identify the white blood cell in the first square and put a mark by its corresponding name on the tally chart. Repeat this process as you move across to the next square and then the next square and so forth. If a square has two WBCs, record both types. There are two sheets of cells to count. Once you have counted all the squares you should have a total of 100 cells. Total the tally for each cell type. Add your total tally for each cell type together to be sure you have a total of 100 recorded.
